Anyone know the torque (ft. lbs.) for the 4 nuts/bolts holding on the valve cover of a 1960 550? Just happened to be cleaning between the fuel tank and the cover and at least two were spinning freely. Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
 
Not sure about that...yet. I will not be able to remove the fuel tank until this weekend, and with all the grease and grime and very little clearance between the nuts and the tank, it's difficult to tell. I just happened to reach between the tank and top of the cover and could spin two of the nuts by hand.
