The head nuts on my '45 B Farmall are torqued evenly to 65 ft. lbs., per the service manual. I started at 45 ft. lbs. and worked across the head three times, increasing the torque 10 ft. lbs. each time.
The manual says to start the sequence at the center of the head and work back and forth accross the head toward each end.
Here is the sequence I used:
8 4 1 5 9
7 3 2 6

Thanks Bud, i will do this tomorrow, today i just tightened them up a little bit, since it's the "domed" or whatnot, should i tighten them up a little bit more?
also, is this just somthing from teh factory? or is this bad? on all of my pistons, it seems to be identical, just wondering...
also, ifn i put my finger in my oil pan, there is some type of metal that flaps up, but doesn't move, i would take the oil pan off, but it won't come off
Thanks

I installed flat-top pistons in my B, but I think those valve cut-outs are there on purpose...to keep the pistons from hitting the valves in the TDC position.
That metal thing that flaps up and doesn't move is the oil pick-up on the oil pump. It moves up and down on purpose. Can you guess why
