    Quick question does the 4 bolts on clutch fan(5.7) need to be super tight or just snug? I've had a hell of time getting them out and putting them in suck also couldnt get them super tight due to the weird position and my shortass.
    And also the correct battery size is 24f?
    Plz help any info is appreciated.

    24 F is what I have. As for the clutch bolts, you can get them tighter if you use a very small pry bar with electrical tape wrapped around it to avoid damaging threads or rounding the nuts. They don't have to be tight tight, just snug plus... whatever that equates to in ft*lbs.

    i used a gear and non gear wrench. It really helped to protect the threads. You can place those in there loose and sort of criss cross them tight enough. Then use a pry bar, I used an extended screwdriver, probably as long as the 'Joker's' gun in Batman and slid it through the left side while looking at the engine and tightening on the right side. Hope this helps
