I bought a service manual when I got the LeMans thinking all the info I would need would be within those oages. Wrong!

I need torque values for installing the diagonal reinforcement framework that fits behind the transmission. It has following attachments-

1. Capscrews - forward struts to both sides of engine block

2. Long crossbolt going thru transmission bottom

3. Tie in to porkchops, 2 lower and two upper l/h side.

 

These numbers must be listed somewhere, can someone point me in the right direction? Use standard values for fastener size?
