I was putting on my AEM SRI and just looking around for loos this or that when i noticed that the bolds on the valve cover are pretty losse, i would say less then snug tight, is this right? or have they just loosened up on my during break in (9000Klm) ? anyway, i did not tighten them just in case, but if not suppose to be loose i would like to. thanks

 

They shouldn't be very tight, 31 in/lbs.

 

They should be tightened to 27 +/- 4 IN*LBS. You shouldn't be able to loosen them with your fingers, but you could easily get 27 in*lbs with a ratchet and one finger and thumb.


EDIT: Otter FTW!
