true, but things like over tqing head bolts/studs, you can crack heads, strip threads, cause alot of headaches. 90ft lbs is waaaaaaay enough to keep stuff sealed if built and machined properly.

my first sbc only had like 65 ft lbs and that was on 5 bolts per cyl. (i say only and toyotas original specs were for 58 ft lbs. haha)
