I finally got my adjustable cam gear, but I need to know how tight I can get the bolts on it to be so it doesn't slip OR break. Can anyone tell me in layman's terms how tight is 10-12 lb/ft? I don't have access to a torque wrench here. (By 'here' I mean this whole country... don't ask)

snug, than quarter of a turn i would say, don't take my word for it...... -
-10-12 lb-ft isn't very tight. Get it pretty snug with a short ratchet, I say.1989 cirrisblau-metallic 325iComment

that's basically hand tight. make it snug but don't try to he-man it on there. you won't be able to break anything with one hand, either. :pComment

apply 10 pounds of force at the end of a 1 foot ratchet!
