Bobkra Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 12/28/09 Posts: 51 Loc: NC,USA	Does anyone know the torque for the cylinder head ?. My manual just says tighten in a certain order. Also., I want to verify that + and - on the coil.Which one goes to the distributor and which one goes to the ignition switch? Bobkra

The + post on the coil goes to the ignition switch, the - post goes to the distributor. If you are using an external condenser it will also go to this terminal. _________________________ RAY Member Chat Group - Non-Geographical Region Chevradioman http://www.vccacolumbiariverregion.org/
