some wrong advice in this thread. do not torque pass 75ft pounds. use some lock tight and aim for .0025 end play, this is in inches. hope you have a good dial indicator.

The FSM states, 80-98 ft/lbs.

Update
 
I got it all torqued down, I did use LocTite and double checked end play afterwards. I had been reading the gauge incorrectly and triple checked to be sure. I had a reading of 0.039mm with a 8.00mm spacer. The S and T spacers I had ordered from Atkins are no longer needed, I'll just hold on to them for the future, someone may need them.


So far so good, the engine is running smooth and started right up on first crank after priming. Starts up hot, no leaks, and lookin good. Already put 260 miles on her and I'm keeping a close eye on things for the next few hundred miles. All in all I'm proud of the turn out and appreciate everyone input, Thanks!
