Need some quick torque specs

[Skoobie]

Ok I forgot my Chiltons at home and Im putting my Upper intake back on. Can someone please post the torque specs for the upper intake bolts? Id appriciate it

The upper intake manifold is torqued to 12-18ft/lbs

No more than 10-12 ft-lbs are necessary to seal it; and the lower casting as well as the ears on the upper are not very strong pieces. People regularly break the ears and occasionally break the lowers. I wouldn't take it anywhere near 18 ft-lbs.

Here is where I got those specs from. When you look in you chiltons book again, you will see the same torque specs I just told you.
