Can anyone confirm this please? Just refitted my rocker gear and used these settings but the 13mm head bolts (M8?) didnt feel all that tight when the wrench clicked...
Also, is loctite essential on these bolts? Have assembled without but not done the clearances you so no cover on yet. (In the middle of a cambelt change)
Cheers!


Did the shaft pull down against valve spring pressure ok and the pedastals make contact with the head, sometimes they go tight without the pedastals being properly seated and the torque wrench will click.
