Message: <blockquote data-quote="kerf" data-source="post: 97385">Well heck, might as well dump my opinion in here too. Torque wrenches are inexpensive, aluminum strips easy, cylinders can be warped with incorrect torque procedures. The torque pattern on a 4 bolt head would be pretty hard to screw up. I always tighten to 1/3 torque all the way around then 2/3 etc.Does anybody know the specified torque on these head bolts? Wrong torque can be bad. A 60 in. lbs. wrench would be about all I would trust at low settings in aluminum.</blockquote>
