Step one 55 ft-lbs.

Step two 65 ft-lbs.

Step three 85 ft-lbs.

There is a certain pattern you have to follow also when tightening the bolts.

I have always just gone in a spiral pattern from inside out, sometimes they have you criss-crossing in the manual, but its always basicly a spiral from inside out wich should work fine unless youre building some 500hp monster
