Yes, what they said. 96 ft/lbs and the engine turns over at about 85 ft/lbs so you will need someone with a good sized wrench on the crank pulley to keep it from turning the engine over. On the front cover, I used Permatex, black. It is rated to 550 degrees which should be adequate for the that location.
