I just got a car with the intake off, the upper. What are the torque specs for those bolts? its a cobra, 93 style. ALso, ill check the bottom manifold, so if you have that also that would be great, thanks!

No more than 18-20 ft-lbs on the lower; no more than 10 ft-lbs on the upper. Also, the pattern for tightening the lower is counterintuitive - be sure you use the correct pattern. If the lower was in place already, unless you have some reason to suspect it's been tampered with, I'd leave it alone.
