[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 137512, member: 60"] 38 lbs ft is a bit heavy for my recall I was told 32 at my mothers knee (The only time I use a torque spanner on the Vin and then I feel a little guilty :) *) and even 32 is done as 25 ish in the evening and 32 in the following morning, delicate things those barrels *Dont forget the first real torque wrench was only patented in 1935 in USA and the beam deflector type in 1948 so I doubt if there was any at Stevenage. Back then tight is tight too tight is busted. [/QUOTE]
