My Hercules book says 157 1/2 foot pounds for the DJXC engine. It should be a 5/8" stud.

Don't forget to check the clearance on the swirl chamber tops if you've machined the head as it can sit on them. I agree with Robert I did mine to 160lb. The oldest copy of the book I have only tells you what lenth of bar to use as an extension!!
