V12V Intake Manifold Torque Specifications
Hello All!
Does anyone happen to have the intake manifold & exhaust manifold torque specifications and/or torqueing procedures.
Will be performing some work soon on the V12V, and just wanted to have the info ready ahead of time.
Thanks!

I wouldn't torque them unless u plan on replacing ever bolt, stud and nut..on all the jobs I do with intake and exhaust manifolds that I re-use the hardware, I just tighten it by hand, that way you can feel if the bolt is over stretched..Reason I don't torque old hardware for stuff like intake and exhaust, I've had too many bolts and studs snap on me..plus there is no way to torque correctly unless u take the engine out if the car..by putting swivels, extensions and adapters gives u an incorrect torque setting..when I have a clear shot at the bolt and don't need more than a 6in extension, that's when I torque providing the hardware is new or the workshop manual says it can be reused..

Racer X - I will be installing a catch can (possibly have to custom fabricate one based on the limited amount of room), and will also be doing a few other miscellaneous goodies. I'll let you guys know once I'm complete and have all of the bugs worked out.
I'll also take a few pics for anyone that might be interested in doing something similar.
Thanks for all the replies!
