I have checked a number of sources and can't seem to find the appropriate torque values for my '67 Atlas- specifically head bolts, rocker covers, barrel nuts, etc.
Thanks
 
We've been though this to find out even the most God like astute and disciplined in the end, often have to just nip up teeth gritting till it don't leak or loosen up no more. Use T-wrench on the easy to reach fasteners then try to mimic at least that much ummph on the hard to get a T-wrench onto. They sell crow feet extensions to get a T-wrench on the resessed nuts if can't trust your sense of torque. Otherwise look up torque chart per size OD of fastener as about universal and same as various Norton manuals. Minimal ~25 p f to over 30 does it for me, for a time.
