Does anyone know proper torque for the studs on the valve cover don't want to smash the little metal washers on the darn thing I know the intake was 13 ft lbs but not sure if just semi hand tight or if there was a recommended setting for them. Thanks. Also can someone post the number for Merlin at isuzu need to order some other parts and can't find it on the search. Thanks again.

35.4 lb in. those aren't foot lbs. From the manual. Not sure how to convert maybe divide by 12 :_confused
