I did my first one a couple weeks ago using the backside method. I had the same problem that when I rechecked most were slightly loose. After the second adjustment, I buttoned it up and didn't check a 3rd time. The car runs stronger and the torque is more pronounced at 3.5k. I hear no valve noise, but the engine seems slightly louder, mechanically. I'm guessing they might all be a little tight, but the car feels great.

I've heard that looser is better than tighter. Is this true??

By the way, I needed to tighten my belt to turn the engine and now my engine runs MUCH cooler!
