Help! Look up

My husband has pulled a hydraulic clutch from a 1985 camaro 2.8L with a T5 to put into our 1988. We do not have a manual for a 1985, would someone please lookup for us the torque for the pressure plate to flywheel bolts. They are 8mm bolts.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you to everyone who tried to help, I did find the information I needed on another website.

The information for future reference is:

Pressure plate bolt should be a 5/16 and torqued to 20#'s.
My husband had already retapped and purchased the 5/16, so it is working out nicely.

If the bolts had been the 3/8's that a lot of the GM's call for the torque should be 25#'s.

Again thank you for your time and efforts.
