thermoblock spacer torque specs
i got my spacers used and wanted to double check torque specs, mainly the intake manifold stub bolts and the resonance chamber bolts on the top. anyone have the directions or the torque specs?

everything in the install from the IM to the TB gets torqued between 14-18 ft./lbs. so 16 is the optimal level. just make sure your toruqe wrench gets accurate readings. cos you sure as hell don't want to strip the aluminum bolts!

You also need to torque the specs in a specific order... Contact outlaw engineering to get install instructions.
