1976 K5 Frame/Crossmember to motor brackets and mounts

[Royal Sierra 454]

For the life of me I can't find any details on what to torque those bolts? Please Help!!! I need all bolt torques for the bolts in the motor mounting area. Also the clam shell type motor mounts. 1976 Chevy K5

Me too, hit them with a few light Ugga-Dugga's followed by a wrench or short breaker bar to get a feel for torque.

2 grunts and a groan usually works

Proper torque is critical in all situations so my severe OCD and mechanical knowledge tell me, grunts and groans are not accurate, there is a spec somewhere I'll dig my book out later try to find you a number.... Also remember Loc-Tite is your best friend....

I’d bet you’ll have a tough time finding that in a repair manual. If you just have to have a number then google the torque spec for the bolt size (and grade).
