God.....sigh.....some of you guys. Thats why everyone has problems with their cars. Because of poor advice like that. The first time you strip aluminum out on maybe an intake mani bolt or a thermostat housing bolt or someother s*** like that you'll learn. Thats exactly what people say on spark plugs,"JUST SPIN IT TILL IT STOPS." SNAP...gotta pull the head. Please refrain from giving stupid azz advice unless it is remotly correct to installations methods. You will learn over a period of time by just looking at the bolt what kind of torque you can put on them before they snap the threads. The valve cover should be around 3 lbs and on the s14 sr 3 lbs to 7 lbs. I believe the s13 sr could be 3-7 lbs to.
