For 48-52 Chevy trucks it says 25-30 ft-lbs. It doesn't say there is a difference for 3 or 4 speed. I'd assume that 235's of newer vintage would probably be the same. smile

Thanks Whitelightning,

Also is it easier to reinstall the flywheel, and clutch assembly up through the bottom of the bellhousing by one person? Or is it easier to do this proceedure with 2 people?

Chevyboy,

You probably know that the flywheel bolt holes are indexed (not equi-distant) so that it goes on one way. Otherwise your timing marks don't work out so good. It's do-able with one person, but the son of a gun gets heavy until that first bolt goes in. Requires at least two GRRRRS of moderate volume. Not much room for two guys.
