Valve Cover Torque Specs??

I already searched and came up with nothing, but if there is a page on my question, please post it up here.

I'm going to take my valve cover off to polish it either tomorrow or Friday, and I wanted to know what the torque setting is for the valve cover bolts?

Thanx in advance!!!

Josh

Were you able to reuse the existing gasket?

You could probably reuse the gasket, but I would rather get a new one just to be safe they are not very expensive. When I did mine I put a new one on.

Hey, where you get this valve cover from? I like it. I have an 07 tC.
