another endplay question.

I've been reading tons about end play and i think mine is too tight?

I measured .003 when i hand tighten the front bolt, but after I used loctite and up the torque from factory 87ft-lb to ~ 105 ft-lb a bit shy of racing beat recommendation of 120ft-lb i am now measuring .0009-.0011 if i really put some leverage on the front counterweight i can measure out .0015. I did install all new washers/bearings on the front stack. I also did not use sealant on the bolt, is this crucial? Thanks for all the help.

Just follow factory specs. And sealants isn't 100% required. I think from the factory the eccentric bolt came with a brass washer. That's basically all it needs. Although if u wanna be **** about it then get a new one.
