bolts were dry, I went to use my little 3/8 impact to remove the bolts but a few didn't even get a single impact action, just spun them up and out. I had 70km on that clutch. Torque is important for sure its all about clamping force. And I always use blue loctite, I call it liquid insurance lol.Interesting picture for sure. It is important to have those cover bolts not be oily when setting torque.
It is important to torque them as well as that keeps towers from being hammered (spread) due to not being constrained.
