These torque settings are in Nm and are for a v6

Drain Plug 27-40
Filler 27-40
Backup switch 20-27
Vibration damper 45-60
Gearshift lever to control lever 17-27
Transmission case to clutch housing 70-84
Propeller shaft rear universal joint flange to pinion flange 55-65
Centre bearing carrier to underbody reinforcement attaching bolt 20-25
Engine rear crossmember to side frame bolts 40-50
Engine rear crossmember to engine rear mounting nut 30-40
Pressure plate to flywheel bolts 20-25
Bellhousing to cylinder block 72-90
Beaming brace to bellhousing 15-35
Beaming brace to oilpan attaching nut 8-12
Clutch fork to ball stud locknut 25-34
Flywheel to crank attaching bolts are stretchbolts and it is recommended that you
throw out the old bolts and use new ones and they are tightened in this sequence ....tighten all bolts to 18-20 and then turn all bolts a further 70 to 75 degrees (360 degress is a full turn so 75 is about a 5th of a turn)
