I'm getting ready to install the Milodon oil pan on my hemi and install the new main cap bolt for the pickup.

Does anyone have access to a FSM for the torque value on this bolt?

Thx
 
These links don't work. I saw a post on the LX forum that seemed to indicate the torque was 28 NM plus 90 deg. but not sure if the value is the same for a non-SRT8 as a SRT8. Hope someone can help

Thx
 
This information is taken from the Dodge Service manual for the 6.1L Hemi from 2005-2007.


Main Bearing Caps

28 NM plus 90 degrees (you did have the correct information)

Cross Bolts
21.5 NM

Hope this Helps,
Regards,

Some do, some don't. I used these downloads not long ago and they worked fine.
 
If I could hijack this thread with a related question - apologies to the OP.....

As stated - the TTY #3 Main cap bolt is torqued to 28nm + 90deg.

Is the #1Main cap stud and nut the same - or is there no such thing as a TTY stud/nut?

Checked my manual again just to make sure. Once you torque the nut on the stud down, you will then place the oil pick up bracket and place another nut on top and torque that nut to 28 NM as well, but don't do the additional 90 degrees.

Here's a pic of the torque sequence from the manual.
