Default RAM flywheel studs??

I have to remove the studs from the RAM flywheel to get the pressure plate on in the C5. Whats the torque spec on them when reinstalling?

Not sure why you have to do this, but we just torque them in at about 20 ft/lbs.

The bellhousing is too close to the firewall in a C5. It is two piece so you can remove the bottom half and drop out the pressure plate, clutch and flywheel. I cant see any way to remove the upper piece without dropping the engine.

Its going to be a pain in the neck because I'll have to rotate the engine several times to torque down the pressure plate evenly.
