12. Clean the engine block threads. Use a 7/16-14 tap.

Important: The arrow on the gasket must point to the front of the engine. Failure to install the gasket properly will cause gasket failure and possible engine failure.




1. Install the new cylinder head gasket.



2. Install the cylinder head.



3. Install the new cylinder head bolts.

Tighten

1. Tighten the cylinder head bolts to 50 N·m (37 lb ft) in sequence.
2. Use the J 36660-A in order to rotate the bolts in sequence 120 degrees.
3. Use the J 36660-A in order to rotate the center four bolts an additional 30 degrees in sequence.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

4. Install the pushrods and the valve rocker arms. Refer to Valve Rocker Arm and Pushrod Replacement.
5. Install the valve rocker arm cover. Refer to Valve Rocker Arm Cover Replacement .
