In the Gregorys manual its got first stage= 18 - 22 NM.Then for the second stage another 47-53 degrees,(just past an eighth of a turn),or for series 2 manual an extra 80-90 degrees,(a quarter of a turn)

If I recall the above specs is for the 8 bolt setup. The 6 bolt setup uses larger bolts and are done up much tighter. The 8 bolt setup you have to be careful because the bolts do stretch and snap fairly easily. The 6 bolt on the other hand Im pretty sure you can use a rattle gun though I would still use a torque wrench lol

EDIT: Im a retard. This isnt the VN/P section :p. Also missed the title... dont ask.

^^^ I've gotten snapped off lock-tighted flywheel bolts out before.
You don't have to use 'extreme' loctite, just use blue (medium) or similar

flywheel bolts have a certain torque setting for them. like i said id never use loctight on flywheel bolts. and why the hell would u use new bolts everytime? unless a bolt is screwd its fine. plus i put the flywheel back on to the according NM so yeaa..
