Re: need torque specs.

On a 3.8
For "Intake Manifold Fasteners":
Lower manifold to head: 132 in/lbs
Upper intake vertical bolts: 132 in/lbs
Side bolts: 22 ft/lbs

NOW YOU NEED THE TORQUE SEQUENCE!!!

Re: need torque specs.

132 in/lbs = 11 ft/lbs (i would think the in/lbs scale is more accurate, correct?)

its Always good to work up in the torque sequence in 3 or more steps

Anyone have the torque specs for the flexplate, torque converter and trans to engine bolts?

Re: need torque specs.

I assume this is for a 2002?
Flywheel/driveplate to crank bolts:
step one: 132 in/lbs
step two: turn an additional 50 degrees

Re: need torque specs.

I also assume this is for a v6 auto:
convertor to flywheel: 46 ft /lbs
tranny to engine: 70 ft / lbs
