Default torque/ft.pounds on intake

wondering if i could find what the torque would be on a aluminum intake for my 302 it came with the tighting seq. but cant find what to torque to.

its a hurricane if it matters.
i had posted about the intake not fitting but it fits now with the help of a rubber malet it went in place easy and now it fits good i guess it was a fluke




thanks

Never heard of a hurricane? I think you mean P/P TYPHOON

16 ft/lbs and no more
just go over the torque sequence many times to make sure they are all tight
