| Looking at the manualas, I get two figures for torque spects. 46 lbs/ft and 50 
lbs/foot, depending on materials for the conrod. One said phosphate, I think? 
But, alas, I do not know the material composition of said conrods in my engine. 
Which torque figure should I shoot for?
Getting ever so closer to getting the engine back together. After buying a 
cheap powered(not battery operated) drill, all the paint & surface rust from 
the oil pan is gone. Primed everything except the top lip, and the prime job 
came out nicely for a can I randomly found in my inventory. Now I just need to 
do a bit of clean up * masking for the top lip. I think I have an idea. Tape 
the edges off inside, and put some cardboard in and tape that to the edge. Of 
course, a major de-greasing will be done first inside the oil pan.
