Hi,
Let me introduce myself before asking my first questions on the forum:

I'm Olivier from France and I owned since Nov,09 a Unique Motorcars 427 body equiped with a 427 Top Oiler.

The engine has the Edelbrock #6008 heads and the Rpm Performer intake manifold. It has been rebuild by Southern Automotive and has now 4400 miles.

When I bought the car the engine had only 800 miles and I should have tightened the bolts at this period.

Problem is that I didn't know that I should do this job.

Now as you can imagine I get some water in cylinder 7 & 8 which cause failure of 2x roller rockers, 2x pushrods, 1x end stands, and 1x rocker shaft.

I've ordered the parts to S.Automotive but can you please give me the torque spec for the different bolts for:

- Heads,
- Rocker Shaft,
- Intake Manifold,
- Exhaust Headers,
- Valve Covers.

After checking on the forum I bought FEL PRO Gaskets for Heads, Exhaust headers and Valve covers and MR GASKET for Intake Manifold.

The cylinders, heads and valves have been checked all are OK.

Do you think I need to check rods?

Thanks for your replies,

Oliver
