    Valve cover torque setting

    Does anyone know proper torque for the studs on the valve cover don't want to smash the little metal washers on the darn thing I know the intake was 13 ft lbs but not sure if just semi hand tight or if there was a recommended setting for them. Thanks. Also can someone post the number for Merlin at isuzu need to order some other parts and can't find it on the search. Thanks again.
