Torque spec for engine mount to K member?

What is the recommended torque for the mount to the frame bolts?

I looked it up in the manual from Helms (GM), Haynes, and two small block rebuilding guides an couldn't find it any where. I tried searching here as well.

The torque should be pretty close to what it is for the motor mounts since it's a hardened bolt as well. I'd say to torque it to the 80 ft-lbs. listed for the engine mounting brakets in the Haynes manual in chapter 2 part c page 1.

i bet 80 is for the big bolts that go through the engine and frame brackets
