Sorry to steal thread but i'm slightly worried. When I did my cam swap I torqued all the rocker arm bolts together, I didn't rotate the crank and re-check them. Should I worry about this? Is it necessary for me to remove the valve covers and re-check them again?

im no expert, but if it was me i would, just because its very easy to do. Your probably alright if you torqued them down correctly, but like i said, it wont take you more then 30 min for the whole job.
