Default Did I instal my heads wrong?

layed down the new headgaskets on clean surfaces, put the heads down torqued the heads down in the correct order and correct specs for arp studs. Put on the rockers and torqued them down to 22ft lbs. Did I forget anything?

I heard something about turning the engine over and retorquing the rockers but was told I didnt have to do that because I never removed the Cam?

Any input?

retorquing the rockers is because after the heads are removed and replaced, and the rockers are put back on top they will move slightly after its ran and heat cycled. so... put them on, run it, and retorque them...
