48102, What do the motor mounts need to be torqued to?

What do the front and rear motor mounts need to be torqued to (the binding bolt).

Also, what do the rear motor mount base bolts need to be torqued to?

I know the front crossmember bolts are suppose to be torqued to ~55lbs/ft.

Does anybody know? I can't drive my car till I can torque the bolts to spec.

Hmm...couldn't wait for a response.

I torqued the 3 bolts to the tranny to 55lbs/ft, the bolts to the 3 frame to 55lbs/ft and then I tightend the motor mount bolt to the point where a 14mm open end wrench wouldn't fit over the nut (it has a recesed area, and the tighter you make the mount, the more recesed the bolt head and nut become).
