What is the head torque for a 1999 Chevy Malibu?

There's no single head torque specification for a 1999 Chevy Malibu. The torque value depends on the specific engine in the car. The Malibu came with several different engines that year (likely a 2.4L or a 3.1L, possibly others depending on trim).

To find the correct head bolt torque specification, you must consult a repair manual specific to your Malibu's engine. This manual will provide the proper torque sequence and values. Using the incorrect torque can cause serious engine damage.

You can find a repair manual:

* Online: Sites like eBay, Amazon, or Helms Inc. (a reputable source for GM manuals) often sell them.

* Auto parts stores: Many auto parts stores (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) may have access to online repair information or sell printed manuals.

Do not attempt this repair without the correct information. Incorrect tightening can lead to warped cylinder heads, blown head gaskets, and other costly damage.
