taurus Plenum torque specs PLEASE???!!!

I have a 99 Taurus with the 24 Valve 3.0 liter engine. Does anyone know the torque sequence and specs for the EFI plenum. Local shop wanted to charge me $500 for a tune up. The plenum has to come off to get to the plugs. Six bolts, 6 plugs and wires can not possible add up to $500.00.

thanks,
Tony

Start from the middle, work your way out, alternating front and back. Go to around 25lbs, which is about "tight" with a regular ratchet. Make a first pass, just going to snug, then go around in the same pattern to the full torque.
