rThe values you are requesting have been requested and provided in past threads. A quick search for either "intake+manifold+torque" or "valve+cover+toque" (without the quotes) will turn up the relevant threads/information.

See this thread, post 14.

Lower intake gasket replacement - Blazer Forum - Chevy Blazer Forums,

Install the manifold and bolts and tighten the bolts in this sequence:

Tighten the bolts in sequence to 26 inch pounds (some versions of the factory manuals say 27 inch pounds, but I doubt 1 inch pound difference matters).
Then tighten the bolts in sequence to 106 inch pounds.
Then tighten the bolts in sequence to 132 inch pounds (11 foot pounds).

This is a job for the 1/4 drive "inch pound" torque wrench.

Thanks for all that information but the search for torquing the intake manifold was just an example in the previous post. I was looking for u-joint and pinion nut specs. I posted here because I did a fair amount of searching in the forums with various keywords and just couldn't come up with anything. I got some specs from the net and wound up snapping a u-joint bolt so had to remove the pinion flange to remove it. Now I need to torque that back on...
