You can see the 3 that broke off in the screw holes.

Here's what it looks like, had 2 protruding lines.

So let's classify it. Seems like its in the 5T category.

5T:10mm - 24ft-lb's...

What'd I do wrong...?

Try over torqueing is what caused this to happen. You must be careful with tightening bolts, and trust me those bolts were stressed to shear off.

 

[Bri7man]

yeah obviously but really!? is that right 24 ft-lbs of torque....

Those bolts can't hold that much I didn't even get near 14 lb's b4 it snapped..

Would would tsrm say that??

56 INCH Pounds.

The bolt head is 10MM but the thread has a diameter of 6MM.

 

[Bri7man]

Fuck... I was reading that all wrong, and payed for it.

How do I do inch pounds, I think my torque wrench only does foot punds and some newton meter system..

 

[Zumtizzle]

Inch Pounds is a special torque wrench.

I use a 1/4" ratchet for assembly of all 10MM bolts.

That price is awesome and harbor freight is really close.

Wow dude.. I can't thank you enough.

When you work on a motor and wrench bolts you must have a feel for certain things. Smaller bolts never need high torqueing. Be prudent in your decisions.

yeah and its funny because I normally do, always have but some reason with this swap im brainwashed into doing everything perfectly right or at least try to and the fuckin tsrm threw me off im best doing things out of order and on my own than following instructions but w/e I learned.

Thx man
