I'm putting my transmission back in next week and want to know what I need to torque down to factory specs besides the flywheel and the transmission itself to the bell housing. It's an Xact flywheel with a 2600 like I said in another post. Do I need to torque down the gusset underneath the transmission or the crossbrace that runs front to back? What about the lower strut bolts, slave cylinder bolts or the bolts that mount the bearing that the drivers side axle runs through which bolts to the block?
Anything else that I might not want to just ratchet down tightly?
 
I wouldnt over tightin anything. most of the bolts are going into Aluminum stuff, to tight, it becomes Striped, and wont hold anything.
 
I have the DSM backup manual CD and I ordered a haynes manual that I'm picking up tomorrow. My question was what really needs to be torqued down to spec and what can I do by feel.
