Re: Starting my engine build

Alright well I'm heading to the hardware store this morning. One of the cam gear bolts broke so I need a bolt getter outter and a new 5/16's course thread by 1". Then I'll be off and running again. I have a really nice torque wrench but it only goes down to 25 lbs and the bolt called for 20 lbs. I may pick up a smaller torque wrench while I'm out, and I need a micrometer as well as I'm closing in on the head install.

Read that post from about and it got my wondering about valve adjustment. During the install process you tighten the rockers down, you go a half turn past the specified torque rating correct? I'll definitely post up here when the heads are about to go on but that other thread got me thinkin and trying to plan ahead a bit
