on the timing cover to the cylinder block bolts you need to torque them to 12-18 ft. lbs
i cant remember if there is 2 or 4 bolts from the oil pan to the bottom of the timing cover but those need to be torqued to 12-18 ft. lbs
the harmonic balancer needs to be torqued to 70-90 ft. lbs, remember to put some silicone sealer on the keyway of the balancer
and finally the water pump mounting bolts need to be torqued to 16-24 ft. lbs
hope that helps
good luck
