Re: Retorque heads procedure (vettmanlt4)
This is a much debated subject for sure,
but when I did mine, I had to remove the headers and then started in the center and loosened one bolt, then retighted that same bolt, then went clockwise to the next bolt at 1:00 then did the same in a spiral fashion.
I hope i did not confuse you.
