When I did my engine rebuild, I did not have a torque wrench small enough to fit into the holes to properly torque down the rockershafts, so I just made my best guess effort by feel. Well, they leaked. So I open it back up, and tightened them some more with allen key, as well as the custom allen socket I made for my 1/4 ratchet. I just tightened them until I felt that it is enough for a little bolt like that, and stopped. Yes, it was unscientific, but the thing stopped leaking.

JW, where can I get some Dirko? I may need some soon.
