Flexplate bolt torque ?

Anyone know the torque for the flexplate to crank bolts? And as well as the flexplate to converter bolts? I have searched the service manual and cannot find any torque values. Dont want them backing out as i have heard stories before. I know most people dont torque anything but i am funny like that. Thanks for any input.

Flexplate

When using suncoasts flexplate do you still use the factory plate that sits in front of the original one? Or does the thickness of the new one make up the difference?

You remove the old one and replace with your new Suncoast unit.


Edited: Oh, you mean the spacer. Yes, you reuse that.

Yeah i was referring to the round plate, or spacer would be a better description. Thank you, wasnt sure. Guess i shouldnt expect instructions on a $500 dollar part.
