Hi all,

 Anyone know the proper torque specs? Shop manual from Chevrolet says 130 in lbs.  

Other publications say :

7-9 ft lbs

10 1/2 - 13 ft lbs

84 -90 in lbs

Does anyone know ? 

Thanks

I don't KNOW, but think it would depend on the type of gasket used. Neoprene -v- rubber -v- cork. Are you assembling it dry or wet?  Have to be careful of squish factor!

My 72 GM Service manual says 130 inch lbs.  Not sure if that helps.
