One MORE question! Oil Pan

Anyone know the torque specs for the oil pan gasket bolts? Also, you start from the middle and work out right? Also, does it matter which side you start from?

i snug one down in the middle and go over to the other side in the middle and work my way out going side to side.i just snug em down until they are all about the same then start over and take them down tight.i use the 1 pc gasket for the later 90's 460's and they have inserts for the bolts so you cant crush the gasket from over tightening.you do have to pick the inserts out of the gasket on the corner bolts that are a 5/16" and the gasket only has 1/4" inserts .

15 ft/lbs or 180 in/lbs from all of the referance material I have. To convert in/lbs to ft/lbs divide by 12 or multiple ft/lbs by 12 to get in/lbs.
