Default Engine mount stud torque specs help

I’m really struggling to find torque specs because I’m not 100% sure what things are called.
im looking for the torque specs on the nuts that go on the motor mount studs. The studs go through the engine cradle ( I believe that’s what it’s called).
I found a torque spec of 118 lb ft for “ front cradle mounting fasteners “, but I’m not sure if that’s the right thing or not.

im also looking for the torque specs of the support bars that mount to the frame and cradle, they mount at an angle on each side of the car. I found a torque spec of 74 lb ft for “ underbody side rail cross brace fasteners “, but I’m also not sure if that’s the right thing.

I found most of the other torque specs I was looking for with a thorough search. Thanks in advance.

I also found this. But there are only two bolts and this lists 3 torque specs...

Front Cradle Stabilizer Bar Bracket to Frame Rail: 110 N-M or 81 ft-lb

Front Cradle Mounting Fasteners: 160 N-M or 118 ft-lb

Underbody Side Rail Cross Brace- Front: 100 N-M or 74 ft-lb*

BUT the torque spec seems right and it’s showing nuts going through what I believe is the engine cradle.

Pretty sure that is what you are looking for, I have had to lift my engine slightly for a crank seal replacement and these are the nuts I had to loosen to slightly raise the engine.

Ok hopefully this is the last one I need, I can’t find a torque spec on the oxygen sensors...

Beretta how are you finding these specs? Do you have a program?
