Torque spec for engine mount through bolts?
Torque spec for engine mount through bolts? I'm looking at the torque tables on http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/fbody/torquespecs.htm
43 ft. lbs on the brackets to block/ frame, sounds good, but I'm confused why there are 2 specs for the through bolt/ nut.
Engine Mount Through Bolt Nut
80 nM
59 ft. lbs
Engine Mount Through Bolt Screw
95 nM
70 ft. lbs
I'm inclined to go 70 ft. lbs on both sides. What's the 59?

When turning the nut you are fighting just the nut flange friction the thread friction and the bolt stretch. When tightening the bolt you are also fighting the friction of the engine sitting on the bolt.
That said I have always just used German specs. good-n-tight pronounced like ooh-ah
or sometimes air tools.
