Hello Everybody!
I was wondering what are the Torque settings for the bolts on the valve covers? I know i don't have a book but i thought i should be able to do this w/o too much trouble. I know i have to take off the plenum and stuff but I'm pretty sure i know what i'm doing so anybody take me into consideration please let me know what they are please.

It's only about 11 ft/lbs. Not tight at all. Line the gasket with a thin coating of RTV when you reinstall the cover.

Yes, you definitely want to put a light coat of gasket sealer on there. Don't go overboard with it, it will be messy and end up all over inside your engine.
