[EIN — Torque retention can vary with used head bolts, ‘causing coolant leaks or compression loss af cylinder head ‘mating surface. To asture a leak-tight assembly use new head bolts: 2) Tighten cylinder head bolts in 4 steps, then back off head bolts 2 or 3 turns. Now re-tighten head bolts using 4 steps ‘again. After coating each push rod with oil conditioner, install uth rods in their original position. Postion rocker arms over push rods, install fulerums and tighten fulerum attaching bolts. — For each valve rotate crankshatt until foppet rests fon heel of camshatt lobe before tightening fulerum attaching bolts. Fulerums must be fully seated in eylinder head and push rods seated in rocker arm sockels prior to final tightening. 3) Install exhaust manifolds and apply a thin beod of sealer to rocker arm cover flange.
