5.0 Flywheel Torque Specs

Howdy All--Just wondering if anyone knows of, or where I can get the bolt torque specifications for attatching the flywheel to the motor(crank) on a 1988 5.0 HO motor.

It was originally an AOD tranny mated motor, and I am using a T-5 in my application. Any info would be apreciated! Thanks!![&:]

Yup, and don't drill out the holes to make it fit (aode06:D), PLEASE!!!! Same w/ the pressure plate...tq it down in stages to keep it from warping.

On the FW bolts, you'll want to use loctite or thread sealant to make sure they don't leak oil......
