The 6 (I think) bolts holding the pressure plate to the flywheel, what are the torque specs on these in ft. lbs?
I don't have my service manuals here.
Thanks!

Usually about 20-25. I don't have the exact specs handy though.

Well I have them at 45 ft. lbs. so that should be good. Hard to do more when it moves.I mean I know the clutch needs to be able to do it's job, but the way this thing is made, you can't over torque the bolts right? I know you can break them, but you can't over tighten them so the clutch doesn't work properly, correct?

Alright, I read the KB (Very useful, btw) and see it is 21 ft/lbs. Is over tightening bad, I guess that is all I need to know.
OH and by the way, make sure to tighten the pressure plate bolts BEFORE you re-install the transmission... Don't ask me how I know this.
