Question torque specs for slave cylinder

I found eboggs torque specs and it says 71 in lbs for the slave but I cant find a torque wrench that goes lower than 120 in lbs. Does anyone know what the conversion would be in ft lbs?

divide by 12 for foot lbs.

6 ft lbs.

snug it tight by hand - it will be more than enough torque, but not enough to break the bolt - you're good.

yep haha.

dude - you're not talking about a torque to yield bolt here - all you're going to need is to tighten it by hand, or just do 120inch pounds if that's the lowest you can find.

I made it snug with a small ratchet and put a lil silicon on the head to tranny to make sure it doesn't back out...insurance I guess. if u tighten it just a lil too much u are garanteed to strip the threads in the hole.
