torquing head bolts in car How is everyone measuring angle when doing the finish passes in car? Im pretty sure the angle attachment isnt going to fit on the back bolts.
Im thinking of marking the bolt heads with a paint pen, then turn and check untill it "looks correct". Obviously not going to be super accurate but not sure how else to do it.

I said to hell with all that and went with ARP head bolts. To me it's worth the price to not have to deal with TTY, and if you ever have to back out the bolts for any reason you'll be able to re-use them.
