How much torque on oil pump cover bolts?

Just like the title says, how much torque on the 4 bolts that hold on the oil pump cover.

Thanks,
James

Re: How much torque on oil pump cover bolts?

Humm.. I guess I need to find a inch pound torque wrench.

Should I put a little loc-tite on the bolts to make sure they dont back out?

Also, I tightend them a little tight (probably around 10-20 ftlbs) but I havent turned the motor at all since I did, so you think it'll be alright if I just loosen them and re tighten?

Thanks,
James

Also, what does it cost to have a machine shop go through a oil pump?
