    The book says 75nm which everyone thinks is a mistake

    From what I read most are staying 50 nm ..about 35 lb pounds

    Let see what others say

    I set my torque wrench to 25 lb-ft but stop when I feel that the seal ring has yielded a small bit (~ 10 degrees)

    Of course you need to use new seal rings every time (otherwise they work-harden).
