The specs are below, it should be done in two passes and you need to do it the proper sequence. The crude drawing below is the sequence

-----12---11---4---1---5---6
Back--------------------------Front of intake/Motor
-----10----9---3---2---7---8


Intake Manifold Bolt/Stud FIRST PASS
6 Ft Lbs

Intake Manifold Bolt/Stud SECOND PASS
35

Nope never mind it's the same. The book is calling out inch pounds for the first setting.

OK ASRoff, I took your advice and stripped all 12 of my intake bolts, and backed them off 1/4 turn, but I still have leaks ??? Can I use superglue instead of RTV??
