just make sure u install the bolts in the reverse order u took them off, and do it in alternating fashion..kinda like when u do your rims... i think u'll be fine without using a torque wrench, just make sure its nice and tight.

lil???
son, my car would hav lil trails of smoke come under the hood sometimes, n into the cabin..
i thought it was jus the fact that my timin' chain cover had to be re-sealed.....
i noticed that i wasn't blowin' smoke out my tail pipe as much yesterday either...
ju s a lil' once, but that is prob oil residue still in the cylinders...
i'll see how it acts this week....

How is Austin Mr. Chapter President??
