I did a search and all i found was Flywheel Specs. What search term will I find them under?

Also the FSM available from the web site in the sticky at the top of the page is NOT a FSM it is a re-typing/copy of some parts of the manual with NO diagrams etc. also no Torque Specs listed.

Next????

Valve and front cover just hand tighten them. anything more and you will strip the threads out. i would say about 10 ft-lbs

in-fact, come to think of it, I think your front timing cover is 14 ft. lbs. , not 100% sure, but i just rebuilt mine about 1/2 yr ago, and I think its 14
