      Can someone give me the proper torque sequence for these motors?  Looks like the larger six bolts surrounding the bearings get 13.5 to 14 ft- lbs.  Not sure about the smaller outer flange bolts.  Should the larger center bolts be step torqued up to full before doing the flange bolts? Thanks for any help

        I think I’m going with this sequence if nobody corrects me today.  847 sealer and perfect seal on bolt threads…Look OK?

          Is that the head for this motor?
