Default RE: removed rocker arms with out bumping motor

with the valve closed, the rocker bolt should torque up between 1/4 to 1 turns, this should give you the recommended lifter preload
but if everything is still stock, just tightening them down with the valve closed will be good enough. and one more note is to keep all the parts in the same place when you took them off.
