Default Re: 408w running poorly

I just checked my book for the intake torque specs and it says between 23-25 ft/lbs.
When I did mine, I went 17# on the first round and then 24# on the second pass and then re-torqued them 3-4 times again after that.
Buying used heads is a risky chance unless you know the person very well that's selling them.
I hope it ends up that it's not the heads and that all you need is to re-torque.
