Would the 20 Valve have the same settings as the 16 valve 4A-GE?

There's a workshop manual for the 20v (albeit for the blacktop) floating around online in pdf format that's very useful. Handily for me I was still an employee at the time I found it so I made good use of work time by printing the whole thing out and binding it! Wouldn't do it now I'd be paying the printing costs ;-) I've just had a quick look online and can't find it immediately, but that's not to say it's not available if you have time to dig around a bit more.

I'll check out the torque settings this evening and let you know. If you have an ftp space where you'd like me to upload the pdf to (this applies to anyone else who wants a copy!) then send me a PM.

It's for a black top, no idea what a FTP is lol but would love a copy if you could somehow send me one in PDF form or just the torque settings would be great
Cheers :D

The camshaft caps are 13lbft (17Nm)

Head bolts are 22lbft (30 Nm) +90 +90

Tightening order
8 4 2 5 9
10 6 1 3 7

I'll send you a PM with link to the manual later on...
