[QUOTE="Morecowbell, post: 1438361, member: 27150"] Good catch on the different bolt length. When I pull any cover bolts out, I lay them out in an outline of where they're fitted. I noted the top two bolts were longer on my first valve check 30K miles ago; I marked those longer bolts with a Sharpie, along with a corresponding small Sharpie mark on the crankcase. Even with the bolts fitted in their proper place, the top two still stripped with the proper torque spec (obviously 12Nm, as opposed to the 10Nm I mentioned earlier just going from memory). [/QUOTE]
