I will add to this question the Oil pan. I know the gasket on the oil pan can not be squished to death or a leak will happen. I also have a 1941 A and the same question would apply for it as well. Thanks in advance for the many replies that I am about get. James [Reply]   [No Email]

But if I had to venture a guess, I'd say 11-14lbs, the same as the other 5/16" bolts used on the engine in non-critical applications. Or as CNKS said, tight with a 3/8" ratchet.

Two bolts hold it in? -- no particular torque value on that type part, just make them tight with a 3/8 ratchet. [Reply]  [No Email]
