Thanks

Cylinder head bolts 75ft/lb.

Rocker cover bolts 7ft/lb.

Later manual says cylinder head bolts 1st stage 30 ft/lb, 2nd stage 75ft/lb, and this is the best way to tighten them up via the 2 stage process.

Make sure you start tightening them from the centre two bolts first and move outward from there evenly.

thanks for that FB Mad, i read that on the other topic of this but i thought 186 or 202 and 161 might have different specs.
Thanks

Nah, they are pretty much all the same, 'cept the rocker adjustment/tightening procedures between adjustable rockers and the later non adjustable ones are different.
