Tubman,
"I think we are all assuminging (probably correctly) that he has iron heads, but he has never said explicitly."

I have finned aluminum offys. I torqued to 40 pounds as per VANPELT specs at "35-40". I am going to re-torque twice more. Torque after each heat cycle and keep the torque wrench at 40 pounds, no more.
