rockers on a SBC don't torque down. you have to adjust the rocker to get the correct amount of lifter preload. with the valves closed tighten the rocker nut untill the push rod stops spining (spin it while you tighten) then 1/2 turn more should be good. if your rocker nuts have a set screw tighten it up after settign the lifter preload.
