    Excellent that another rises from the ruins Daniel! Its a nice feeling when they jump to life after a going over.

    I do the same thing to all the nuts and bolts too. Save a lot of headaches and things go together soooo much easier.

      I forgot to post these pic's of the CORRECT WAY to tighten the cam cover bolts:

      84 inch pounds...



      And these, I couldn't find a spec for. They got 65 inch pounds...



      As they had to come off anyway to pull the cover, I took a wire wheel to these...



      After...



      If I wanted to give a rat's butt, I might have polished and painted them.
      I prefer to ride.

        Daniel,
        Is that wrench "calibrated?" Hope so!

          You said cam cover bolts, I think they are called valve cover bolts. I couldn't figure out how cam cover bolts could EVER get that dirty.
