Anybody know what the torque spec is for the flywheel to converter bolts on a th350 tranny?? also there is a small hole in the top of my crank vent tube are they all made that way for a reason or did someone just do that for some unknown reason 50 years ago?? just wondering. I'm rigging up the tube to the auto tranny case.

They're 7/16-20 bolts, so 55-65 ft./lb. will work. Normally, there's a plastic vent with a loose-fitting cap near the top of the case to keep bugs, etc. out of the trans case, or a small piece of steel tubing with a 90-degree bend in it. Unless you're planning to go off-roading and get that part of the transmission case submerged at times, I see no reason to attach anything to the case vent.
