    Hi

    Great to see your car in now back on the road again, I'll get a set of bigger washers and I'm going to have to bite the bullit and change them 1 by 1 as I don't want to go above the 65lbs/ft with the arp washers and take it from there. I'll give you a PM as other q's to ask

    Cheers Paul

      Personally always torque them to 80ft/lb irrespective of washers used.

      Re -torque on 1 engine heat cycle, once at 150-250 miles before mapping, once at 750 miles and then every 500 miles till they settle. Once settled check them once a year for piece of mind.
