15-20 for the outer 4 bolts, 25-30 for the 2 next to the heat riser. I also like to remove the 2 guide pins at te very outer ends of the exhaust manifold and replace them with bolts for better sealing. I torque them to the same 15-20 ft/lbs as the others.
Carb can be installed on the manifold before or after, might be easier to hadle the manifold with it off, though.
