    I use a torque wrench for just about everything else.

    They simply bottom out and come to a complete stop, if you tighten any more past this point will just rip the bolt off.
    That's how most...

    Good tip on the razor blade. On my last ZHP someone used a lot of sealant all around and it took some work to get everything off.

    I personally never use a torque wrench for valve covers. I just...

    Just make sure both surfaces are clean before assembly and it should be okay. I always thoroughly clean grooves in the valve cover as well. Shop towels and lots of break cleaner.

    From personal experience, I don't think it wraps with age, but it is made of plastic so it does get brittle over the years.

    Just be careful when you take the valve cover off cause it will be stuck...

    Good job and awesome details as always!

    TSE3 is one of the best upgrades for a ZHP. It sounds so good. Worth every penny!
    I had the light version and can't imagine having a ZHP without it.

    I've done few Vanos jobs and I'll jump in with some suggestions.
