Spaced M16 calipers

[4-Door Pete]

I'm in the process of building up my front brakes on the Cortina.

I bought a new pair of M16s and spacer kit from Rally Design so I can fit vented discs but I can't find a torque setting for the bolts. I know they were bloody tight when I undid them. Also should I use thread-lock.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Im sure there will be a torque setting but bloody tight will be good. A bit of thread lock will not hurt but either

Thanks for the reply, I did the other caliper last night to discover that the spacers I have are both left hand side.

 

so back to the drawing board.

I'm pretty sure that the spacers are the same each side.

The spacer that has the small hole for the brake fluid has a cut-out seat for an O-ring. This needs to be mirrored between left and right or the O-ring won't have a cut-out to sit in on one side.
