High HP & torque guys: what do you torque flywheel bolts to?
Curious how many ft-lbs other folks with high hp/hig tq cars torque their flywheel bolts to.

Do you torque with a torque wrench by hand?

Do you say screw torque wrenches and specs and hit the bolts with an impact gun? If using an impact gun, do you use a torque stick?

I think the manual calls for 85ft lbs. That being said, 95ft lbs with loctite.
