Default t56 front plate adapter bolt torque

I have two torque specs on the 11 bolts holding the adapter plate on my 04 GTO t56? Under the sticky here how to rebuild your t56 at the end it has 11 ft/lbs....doing some research I found 26 ft/lbs? Does anyone know?? The bolts are 10mm, so not small by any means to handle a pretty good torque load. Just don't want to possibly put any undo loading on the bearings.

Pretty sure it's around 36lbft for the M10's.

Near sure I used a lot more though lol

Not a hope is 26lbft correct, far far too low.

LOL...with those track numbers i'd torque everything down a few extra also
So far i've put the ultra black on it and torqued it to 13lbft...11lbft seemed real low but the rebuild sticky has been up a while and no one has corrected it? If it is more, i think (or hope) from the flexibility of the silicone i can still torque down the plate with no consequences?

Crikey...just checked the manual. It does say 26lbft for those bolts.

I'm near sure I did mine to around 45lbft LOL

Thank you...26 it is...probably should change the 11 ft/lbs on the sticky. And 45 is good for you to keep everything together
