Hi.
I need to know the tightening torque for the connecting rod bolts of the 25 HP engine for my 1949 split. I have seen two different values: 5 mKg and 3.5 mKg. Which one is correct?. Thanks in advance. |

| I was confusing, because in the VW tolerances book the torque value of the cranks for the 30HP motors is 3.5 mKg, and I thought maybe this value was the right one for 25HP. I see that the correct value is 5. Thank you very much, Steve. |
