Lower intake torque and sequence

Hey guys,
I did a search and got all the torque and sequence info i need for installing the intercooler adapter plate and supercharger (magnum powers baby!) but i am also changing from my 2000 lower intake and intercooler to a 2002 setup. With that being said All i need to know is the torque specs and torque sequence for attaching the lower intake to the heads. I was also wondering if the lower intake gasket is reusable. I would guess not but just thought i would ask. Thanks to you all. One more thing, does anyone know if the bolts for the lower intake are torque to yield?

Install the intake manifold & thermostat outlet.
Install the bolts. Tighten the bolts in two stages in the sequence shown.
Stage 1: Tighten to 2 Nm (18 lb-in).
Stage 2: Tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).



I have heard of people reusing the intake gaskets, but I personally wouldn't recommend doing so. and the bolts are not torque to yield, so do feel free to reuse them.

hope this helps.

good luck.

later,
chris
