Default torque specs

does anyone know what the torque specs are for the install of new motor mounts? The instructiuons give the specs for the top middle one but not for the 2 on the sides or for the bolts on the engine brackets. I didn't think you needed to take the engine brackets off but the instructions call for it. I got the Prothane motor mounts btw, they where Justin's last pair he had in stock today, lucky for me..

any help is great

Prothane bullet motor mounts.

30ftlbs is for the center bolt but nothing is mention for the 2 bolts on the sides. Plus if I have to take the motor brackets off what is the correct torque when I put them back on?

Oh, sorry I misread your post - let me dig out my service manual... I think it is under that pile?

55nm / 41ftlbs for both

thank you very much. Where did you find that info at if you don't mind me asking. Did you buy the seperate service manual for our car and if so where did you guys get them from other than the dealer? Doing all these mods I think it would pay off to have it.

I bought the shop manual DVD off ebay. I think it was $20. It has come in very handy.I just happened to have those specs sitting on my coffee table because I had to remove them for my header installation.
