Interesting specs on a TA Aluminum Dutweiler S2.
Something to be learned here I think. :)

"*Tighten after vertical main stud nuts; adjust torque as needed to maintain a round main bore as measured with a dial-bore gauge."

Wow... I guess you torque with only the bare block, figure out what is needed to be "true round", then use that setting when final assembling? That is a "busy" setup, way beyond my abilities!
 
I learned I can never afford one.:(
