[QUOTE="Nodak7mm, post: 1120, member: 103"] Just an observation, but 60 ftlbs seems awfully extreme for an action screw. 60 inlbs sounds more realistic. I am on the road and don't have access to my std practices manuals, but I want to say that 60 ftlbs is more suited towards a shank size of 1/2" or larger.. Think about it the torque on your lug nuts are typically 75-90 ftlbs. Considering all Garrett & P&W hot sections I put together over the years, if I applied 60 ftlbs on a 1/4" shank case bolt I would have trashed alot of engines. Sounds like (the above stocks) could be victim of compression stress fracture maximus.... But I could be mistaken... Just a thought.. Nodak7mm [ 09-21-2002: Message edited by: Nodak7mm ] [/QUOTE]
