Torque specs for plate holding in cam?

Anyone know how tight the star bolts on the plate that holds in the cam should be on a ZZ4 motor?
And cam sprocket gear?
Thanks

The bolts are 5/16 I think so you're going to be looking at 22 lb-ft. If they are 3/8 which I doubt cinch them bad boys to 37 lb-ft. Make sure to use a lock plate behind the bolts and some threadlocker.
