injector swap...anyone know plenum/runner bolt TQ specs?

Im replacing my injectors today (305 TPI 1986/Auto). I have read my service manual and searched here but I cannot find a TQ spec for the t40 bolts or anything related to this swap.

If anyone has the TQ specs, please post them for me so I can complete this task.

20ft lbs should be adequate

I've had mine on and off a hundred times, and never torqued anything to spec. Just a little mechanical intuition.

I just ran them down till they were tight with a 1/4" drive ratchet and gave them a very slight turn. They really don't come loose, and its aluminum so be careful.
