According to my WFK Wood XPAG Engine Data Service manual, the 8mm bolts should be torqued to 29 lbs./ft. and the 10 mm bolts to 43 lbs./ft. Bentley's workshop manual merely says "Tighten smartly"! TT

Reinstall the shims as you found them... Probably they were installed to make up for shaving the head at some earlier time and is a recommended procedure under that condition. Sometime, when the hea

Why not follow the Woods manual? Is there a reason only to use 20lbs. and not 29lbs? I have heard 29 by 3 sources. I just wish to do it correctly. Steve 52 TD

I'd go with Skips recommendations. I, and possibly the other two responses, were quoting from the same WKF Woods book on rebuilding XPAGs which could be incorrect. We all know that just because its

Hi Steve, A few months ago, Chip Old posted some wisdom on this list about those shims under the rocker posts. He said, essentially, to remove them since they were put in on the recommendation of the

I am familiar with the term . . . just not as it applies to the torque value for a fastener, that is unless you have a torque wrench that first measures the tensile load on the bolt, and then divide

I agree. The 29 lb/ft mentioned in Woody Woods' book is okay for an 8X1mm bolt if it is of sufficient tensile strength and if it is screwed into a nut, but that isn't the case here. The 1mm pitch thr

Here's the original, typos and all. It stemmed from a discussion about problems some were having with bronze valve guides. Rocker geometry was sort of a side issue. Yes, that was clear from your post

Correct torque is 150 ft-lbs. Then you tighten a bit further to allow insertion of the split pin. Good Luck! -- Keep on keepin' on! Wayne Kube wkube@iadfw.net 1979 MGB http://web2.airmail.net/wkube P
