Default 7/16 bolts in aluminum threads torque ?

35 lbs sounds about right, is it ?
High Ports, I wish they had Heli Coils like E heads but they are what they are.
One of the reasons I bought shaft rockers was I felt better about all the bolts together on that base vs stud mount.
I played around with stud mount rockers and that is not happening. I have long 351C studs and I had maybe 9/16" of thread for the poly lock and the rocker never even made it to the non threaded part of the stud.
Time to torque the shaft rocker base down with blue locktight and finish this thing.

Coarse- or fine-thread? How much thread engagement in the hole?
