Arrow 1000 Mile Question

I am still in the process of break in on my rebuild, I just hit 1000 so I am going to re torque the heads and cam towers, check that the rockers haven't walked, adjust the valves, etc., then its on to fine tuning.

When I re tourqe the heads, should I back them all out a qaurter turn and then re touqe in sequence to spec?

Or should I just apply spec tourqe to each one in sequence?

Also anything else I should check for?

I have changed the oil three times, the latest oil is still clear, I am going to change it anyways.

Thanks,

Shane

I just check the torque. I wouldn't back them off. You will disturb the fit of the heads on the cylinders if you back them off.
