Ryan, I'm not sure if there is a Bentley manual for the 9000. I
know there's a Haynes manual - I have one! - and it should be
enough to get you through this particular job. I would say the
most critical tools you'll need for this operation are a torque
wrench AND a angle-measuring gauge. For a more detailed
description of why you need the angle-measuring gauge, read
the article that was posted by Joe on the 'General' BB, entitiled
'Keeping It All Together - How a Bolt Works' - http://home.jtan.com/~joe/KIAT/kiat_1.htm. The other question
I have is why your system wasn't pressurized. This used to lead
to irreparable problems with the old 8 valve heads on the 900's.
With lower pressure in the systems, cavitation used to form in
the jackets around the exhaust valves, resulting in holes. It wouldn't
surprise me, if you had run the system for a while with no pressure,
that this is the cause for your Bond episode!
