Hey guys. I shelled the clutch in my 6 speed third gen and I'm in the middle of installing a replacement. Could someone please give me the torque specs for the flywheel bolts and pressure plate bolts from a mid '90s Camaro/Firebird with a 6 speed?

Thanks!!!

Well, I don't have info for a 6 speed but I can give you the specs from a 1990 V8 T5. It should give you a good idea:

-Pressure plate-to-flywheel: 30 lb/ft
-Flywheel-to-crankshaft: 74 lb/ft
-Bellhousing-to-engine: 70 lb/ft
-Dust Shield: 53 lb/in

 

Thanks Cali. It's the pressure plate bolts that I'm really concerned with and since the 6 speed pressure plate is so different from anything else, I really want to be sure that it's right.

Anyone else?

Thanks,
-Tony

 

22 ft-lbs on the PP to FW bolts
74 ft-lbs on the FW to Crank bolts

what i have for PP to flywheel is 20ft/lbs then an additional 15 degrees. i think i did my flywheel to crank at 65 or 70ft/lbs

 

Thanks guys! I got it going today and it's shifting nice again. I appreciate the info!
