    Torque Spec's on Flex Plate???

     



    Hi Everyone! me again, I feel as if I'm taking over with all these posts! THANKS EVERYONE!!! ..... Anyway, usually when I tighten something I just tighten it as tight as it'll go but I was thinking maybe I should pay attention to Torque Spec's? Does anyone know what to torque spec's are to tighten the flex plate on the crank hub? And to tighten the torque converter to the flex plate? THANKS again! Bill

    That's a good number to go with, 55, 60 is in the ballpark for most applications.
