273 commando Build

with a 340 being 10.5:1 also , why not go 95ft/lbs on the commando ? why is there a difference ?
273/318's factory torque spec is 85 lbs. 340/360 is 95 lbs. I don't think the head bolts have anything to do with it, nor compression as 360's have next to no compression.
I'm sure you can torque yours to 95 lbs. But if your heads/block are flush, 85 lbs is sufficient.
