the 240ft lbs is to ensure that the balancer is fully seated since its a press fit, meaning no keyway on LSx engines. And at least now with the new ARP bolt, its not TTY, so it doesnt require stretching. i just need to see what i torque it to. and after every run now and every few days, im gonna recheck it to make sure its tight, plus thread lock WILL be used this time, regardless if instructions call for it or not.
