Where can I get a service manual for our 51 Kaiser? Also does anyone the torque specs for the head bolts on our 226.

I could use one for my 53 manhattan. I prefer hardcopy for display at car shows, of course I'll need the ssupplement. I would also like a accesory catalog, and any other cool original brouchers for display, thanks...

According to the 1953 Motors manual, the 1951-55 Kaiser head bolts should be toqued to 30 - 35 ft lbs. Also, the sequence should be from the center of the head and work  your way out to the outer bolts.
