intake manifold torque

Could someone tell me the proper torque specs and tightening sequence for the intake manifold bolts on a 96 3.2? Thanks.

16 ft-lbs. Sequence is not specified. Usually just pull them down in two stages; snug all down, and step to 16 ft-lbs. I usually go from inside to outside on the bolts similar to cylinder head. Gasket is much thicker and bolt tensions are not as critical on intake manifold. You just want them all tight.

good luck
