What's the reason you need to torque the caps in certain order? Owerkill?

So you don't bend or break the cam. If you started at just one end, there is a possibility of doing that. Even a small bend would cause the cam caps to wear at a different rate and possibilty lead to cam breaking. People have dropped cams on concrete floors only to find out how brittle the cams are (shaft breaks).

I actually have the order documented on my 'torque' page, but I didn't have the placement. I'm also missing the order for the 10V, which is simply each nut crosswise from the centre.
