Retorqued the head studs last night since its been about 6 months, although very few miles and heat cycles. Most of the nuts tightened about 5 deg @130ftlbs. Is that normal?
Also is it necessary to do a hot and cold retorque every time or is just the cold retorque sufficient. Haisley instructions didn't say explicitly.
Also installed the afc and #100 fuel plate but have not driven it yet. I didnt want the high manifold pressure to hurt the diaphragm in the afc so I made a spring valve to bleed off manifold pressure from the afc line after it reaches full travel.
