It is out of my 45 chevy 1.5 ton truck. It is a 9 hole P.plate with a 10 3/4" disc. Anyone know how many ft. lbs. these bolts should be torqued to?

The motor and clutch went in the truck this morning after my last visit to Stovebolt forum. I did a hail Mary play and torqued them all at 40 FT LBS. None of them snapped so I'll probably be alright. I don't have the scatter shield or transmission bolted up yet so I suppose it wouldn't be that hard to re-do them at 25. I guess I'll sleep on it.
