Default Re: Connecting rod torque

If you over torque the connecting rod it can distort the shape of the bearing and cause wear. Take it apart and torque it to spec, then spin the engine by hand and feel for any tiny bit of bind. You may not feel it so it would be wise to measure the rod journal with a mic.
