Default Removal and reinstallation of Vinci/Crane 1.8 rockers

I am going to R&R the rockers on the driver's side today to try and remove the tapping noise I am getting....will I need to go through the entire process again of bleeding down the lifters and everything, or will it be sufficient to just remove them and re-torque them to a certain spec? I know 22 ft-lbs is the torque spec on the factory rail-type rockers...is it the same for the stud-mounted ones as well?

Yep, two of the studs had backed out of the head part way and one was tapping against the inside of the valve cover. Put some loc-tite on and cranked em back down, ticking is gone now.
