Yes, back the bolt out, evenly spread on "anti-seize" compound, insert finger tight, and then torque. Incidentally, the head bolt nuts are very special and made for BMC cars, DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTES! Incidentally, a substitute nut or bolt will probably give you different (substantially) torque readings. If you use an extension, factor that into your torquing equation, especially for a beam type wrench! |
