I anyone knows the answer to this I would appreciate it

I switched to full arp

A tty example is 45ft lbs then you turn it 90° or so

How do I get the correct torque specs for apr. Since you don't have to stretch them?

Call ARP or a engine builder that deals with these new 5.0s like JPC, Livernois, L&M and ask the torque specs of the ARPs if there isn't specs given.

I will make that call when they open, I was hoping to get the attention of some of them on here to have it posted, not only for my reference but to help future builders.

The only other thing I need to know is the timing marks on the main cam gears

Anyone know if you do it the same as the old 3v
6 o'clock crank

Then the L and R on the sprockets

Im looking for a good tune now from someone that wont make it detonate

Evolution wont return my emails, but they responded quick when trying to sell me the tune

I am surprised, Lund has always gone above and beyond to answer all of my questions

I would highly reccomend speaking to him directly. I have spoken to a lot of tuners and he was by the most knowledgable out there. I wonder if he even knows about your situation.

Im sure he does not

Fred is who I have been emailing

All I want is for then to change my tune to a 91 not cammed

So that I can run 93 for safety on a 91 tune

I didn't blame anyone or cause a problem, I just want a tune that's safe
