Help with torque spec for motor mount
I removed the boomerang shaped ignition wire shields on a 1979 and
80 to replace the wires. One of the bolts that you remove appears
to be a motor mount bolt into the engine block. I have the GM
Service Manuals for both years and cannot find the torque spec.
Anyone know what the torque spec is?

Yep.
Tight.
Standard torque on a Grade 5 3/8x16 bolt is 33 ft/lbs. A grade 8 is 47.
