Thanks Rick I torqued them to 16 with the red lock tight.

Sllib good idea, but I already had it back together before I read this.

After thinking about it over night, I think that the bolt holes were so far off that when I tightened the 2nd bolt, the windage tray hole was rubbing the treads off the bolt, as I turned it in. I had to file quite a bit out of the holes to get them lined up.

You would think that, since Ford designed the engine 40 years ago and have been selling windage trays all these years, they could at least get the bolt hole centers right.
