For some reason the valve cover bolts strip sooo easy. I did it without a torque wrench once and I stripped almost all of the bolts without realizing it. Man did that turn into a nightmare.

what do you mean you didn't realize that they were stripped? how did you eventually discover it?

Re: valve cover torque specs? (delinquent)
Tried to loosen them...and they just kept turning. I don't know WTF kind of bolts they used for that cover, they are weak as hell. Oh well, I know next time not to take it off until I get a more sensitive torque wrench.
