Is it too late to pull the seal back out & wipe the lock tite off, the seal is gonna stick to the crank & you dont want that...it should be lubed there.....am I wrong, just my .02

I torqued the rocker boxes now
This is how they are
Lubed them
Here's the center rocker numbers.
I'm now wondering about the dowels that came with the rockers. The main plate doesn't sit flat on the rocker box with the dowel on the stud. The dowel doesn't fit in the hole of the rocker
Here's a pic of the dowel
N here's what happens when I tighten it on the dowel
I've got extra dowels tho. But I'm bout to just leave em off in the centers. The dowels on the sides were never removed from the rocker boxes and fit fine.

I coated the studs first
Then put the washers on and pushed em down with the brush and coated them
Then I coated inside the nuts and the mating surface on them and hand tightened
Oh yeah!!!!! This outta do it

Torque sequence
I called arp today and asked about the values. Even tho there's 500 k on them,,, he said I'm good to do 70-140-210ftlb sequence.
