My accufab is coming in today. Does anyone have the torque specs to attach the plenum to the intake. I don't want to break the plastic. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about the torque specs but don't tighten too hard. I broke a bolt in half by overtightening.

Put mine on 2 weeks ago. I looked through my Haynes manual and through SHM 4.6 book and could not find a spec. for torquing the plenum down to the plastic intake. I guessed and went with 12 ft/lbs. No cracks on the intake and no vacuum leaks. Car runs great!

I put in my Accufab I notice a SOTP right off. The pain of the installation came from putting the stock intake tube back on. Its not all the way on yet any suggestions. I afraid it may slip off. I spent most of my time screwing with this. I torque it a 18lbs I called Ford. thanks for the help guys.
