Torqueing head Bolts

[Rodney]

Was just wondering how much off would you be in torque if you use a 3/8 T-55 bit to a 1/2 in. torque wrench with that adapter? My torque wrench is 1/2 in. and can't find a 1/2 drive T-55 socket for my Heads. would the torque spec be off enough to hurt.Don't won't another Blown head gasket
Thanks alot,,

I've used the adapter when torquing mine. No issues yet. LOL

Huuuuum, I thought the cylinder heads on the Explorer where torque to yield bolts and needed a special angel gauge to torque them correctly

Not sure about the SOHC, but not on the OHV.
