Default torque spec for motor mounts?
ive got 3 different manuals, and none of them list the torque specs for a 69 small block. sure, they may all say to torque to spec, but none of them give that spec.

Just 'Google' "SAE bolt torque specifications" and look up the size and grade bolt used. If they are 3/8-16 bolts, 32 ft-lbs will do fine; if they are 7/16-14, 40 ft-lbs will work.

Hi au,
The 71 AIM indicates 22-30 lbs ft for the bolts that fasten the mount to the block, and 25-35 lb ft for the large bolt that fastens the mount to the frame bracket.
Regards,
Alan
