I've decided to do the rings while I have the head off
...oil pump too.

I can't find a reference for the torque for the connecting rod bolts?
Anyone know?

for that matter, is there a torque spec for the oil pan too?

That job just got a lot bigger!

Pan is 30lbs IIRC. not sure on the rods and caps. Might as well check your wrist pins and RMS! :crazy:
