With a new polymer gasket, it should pretty much settle after 1 heat cycle.

   Simple fix.  ALL my valve cover bolts were loose.  Every one of them.
   I tightened them all
   but didn't want to over tighten them.  Anyone know what the correct
   torque should be?
   I have roller rockers and the taller Ford Racing valve covers for
   clearance.
   Your thoughts?
