How do you figure out what your rocker arm nuts need to be torqued/tightened to?

David, it all depends on the type of cam, solid or hydraulic and the type of rocker arm studs, threaded straight shank or non adjustable with a shoulder. In your signature you list two different heads and no mention of cam. Let us know what you have and we will give you an answer.

Haha yea a little confusing. I guess I should update that. I have rebuilt 68 302 heads and a stock 302 cam. All are from 1968. Thanks!
