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.

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).
