First off Let me say Welcome to the site. I was wondering why is it that you chose are Cummins diesel? Just wondering. I don't know the answer to your question but hopefully someone who knows the answer to this question will answer it for you. And if you would keep us informed on how it goes and good luck. -Anthony

101 ft lbs on the flywheel to crankshaft bolts. No more is needed. Use lock-tite thread locker ( Blue )<br><br>the clutch or pressure plate bolts go down 28 ft lbs. Blue lock-tite as well.<br><br>Don~

Thanks for the info! But the reason I have went with the Cummins is because I got tired of the weak pile of junk!! SO i thought that Cummins would bring that 'ole Ford to life!!! But I'll have alot more questions on the way. And thanks again.
