Intake manifold torque specs?
Does anyone have the torque specs for the lower plastic part of the intake and then the upper intake also? Thanks in advance.

Hopefully you already got your answer. I have torque specs somewhere at home and will post a follow-up when I get home from work this afternoon if you haven't gotten a reply by then.

Tighten it up real slow and smooth until you hear something crack, then quickly unscrew it a quarter turn.

Bump! Anybody got an answer to this? Chilton book has a picture showing the tightening sequence but does not say what to torque it to.
