Ok guys I have 69 302 heads on my 82 with positive stop studs. Do I need to turn the motor over to TDC on each cylinder and torque them down to say 15-20 lbs. Or do I do the zero lash method and a 1/4 turn. I have seen about 10 different ways to do this on here by searching but cant find an exact procedure.
