I need to know the torque specs for the camshaft caps. Looked everywere in the shop manual, didnt see it anywhere.
 
When you don't find fasteners like that listed in the torque table, look at the assembly diagram. When that's not shown, go with standard torque for the size of fastener.

The picture of the cylinder head shows 14-15 ft-lbs.

These are fasteners which are seldom "torqued", you just get used to what is "tight" on this kind of application.
 
Actually 15 ft lbs is exactly what I assumed they should be and I currently have them at that. Thanks for setting my mind at ease though. :thumb:
