Working on machines for years, I use an allen wrench with breaker pipe, do the front cyc. first and then pick a spot on the allen wrench bout half way with the pipe do a pull on bolt already done then go to the hard to reach and use the same feel and same spot on the allen wrench. I have tested this and I have been right on each time. Just my way of doing it.

I did pretty much the same thing. Keep in mind these are the rocker box covers not the heads or something more important to needing exact torque values. If your close you should be good.

I did someone else's 107 kit and t-man 555tq cams a couple months ago. You are gonna love the difference when you get done.

To the OP.
Cover that front fender with a nice thick towel to guard against a dropped socket or such.

Have fun.
