Default Rocker Arm question

I finished up my cam install last night. Put in Comp 918 springs and titanium retainers also. I torqued the rocker arms down to 22lb/ft and put on the covers. I didn't rotate the motor over and retorque, though (it was late, I was tired and forgot--I know, I'm a dumb@ss). So, my question is, should I open it back up tonight and retorque them? The car was driven a few miles today, so it's definetly been turned over. What do you think?

I wouldn't worry about it, as long as you hit 22lbft. I've never turned my motor over after torquing rockers down and I've done it maybe 20 times...not once has one been loose.
