Default need Tq specs for tranny and drive shaft bolts

Im getting ready to do a clutch job on my car and i need some info. I bought a haynes manual and its doesnt give a specific tq spec for anything, it just gives huge gaps like 20-45ftlbs. I dont feel confortable just picking a number.

I need the tq numbers for:

bellhousing to engine
tranny to bellhousing
drive shaft to rearend
flywheel
pressure plate

The only torque spec you'll need: tight.

Seriously, following torque specs really isn't that important unless it's something like head bolts, or the spark plugs in the case of the 4 thread holes on these cars. The only thing you should do it use a cross pattern when installing the flywheel and pressure plate, similar to tightening lug nuts. You don't need to follow a specific torque spec for anything that you're doing here. As long as everything is tight you're good.

scratch that. I found a buddy to do it at his shop for 200. More than i wanted to spend but it sure beats 660 at ford. Thanks for the replies though!
