Torque specs 5.3 Reassembly/Install
As the last few parts for my 4.3 to 5.3 swap trickle in this week I thought I'd try to gather some torquing info for various parts if anyone knows or knows of a place to get this information. Basically I'm needing torque specs (if they even exist) for the following
exh. manifold bolts
intake manifold bolts
throttle body to manifold
motor mount register bolts
motor mounts (to engine and to registers)
tranny to engine
flexplate to torque converter
starter bolts
valve covers (doubt exists but figured I'd ask anyways)
coil pack bracket to valve covers
Thanks all.

Not being a smart ***. Do you have common sense?? If you do all these can be done with out needing a tq spec
exh. manifold bolts
intake manifold bolts big part here is making sure they are all about the same
throttle body to manifold
motor mount register bolts
motor mounts (to engine and to registers)
tranny to engine
starter bolts
valve covers (doubt exists but figured I'd ask anyways)
coil pack bracket to valve covers
flexplate to torque converter this is 46ft lbs.. here is the place to look if you really want to tq them..

They exist.
This is what I found im my GM Service Manual
exh. manifold bolts 11 foot lbs then 18 foot lbs
intake manifold bolts 44 inch lbs then 89 inch lbs
throttle body to manifold nuts 89 inch lbs
throttle body to manifold studs 53 inch lbs
motor mount to block 37 foot lbs
motor mounts to frame mounts 37 foot lbs
Frame side motor mounts through bolts 68 foot lbs
transmission bell housing bolts 37 foot lbs
Transmission to oil pan bolts 41 foot lbs
flexplate to torque converter on 4L60E 46 foot lbs
with a 4L80E 32 foot lbs
starter bolts 37 foot lbs
valve cover bolts 106 inch lbs
coil pack bracket to valve covers 106 inch lbs
coils to bracket 71 inch lbs

Thanks fellas, guess I'm a little over-particular, just a peace of mind thing. I figured they did exist, just don't know how necessary some are, but what can it hurt. thanks again to all tho.
