We just pulled the intake manifold in replacing what we think is just a blown head gasket. But we see this line in the heads that look like a crack. But the same line is in another set of heads I had laying around. Is this just the casting?
This is on an 88 LX.
Yes you could have it magnetic particle detected or if you don't want to take it off the car just dye check it. Or it you want JB weld it. I know it's unorthadox but hell it works!
there should be a torq spec on the back of your arp bolt box, it'll tell you how much to torq them and with what type of thread lube, either 30w oil or moly based ass'y lube

The specs on the back of the box are just general specs. It'd probably be best to email them or call ARP. BTW it is just a casting line. It goes all the way across the head.
the specs are for THEIR fasteners based on bolt or stud, thread diameter, and pitch, with 30w oil (yes, it does make a diff), or ARP moly thread lube-go with the box, or with stock torq specs
