Hey Smitty!  Look again.  Page 3-21 of the 1961 manual
says 45-65 ft-lbf.  It would have been nice if they
had put it in the back with all the torque specs, but
it IS there!

<<Smitty says;  Every day is an education on the list.
 When I answered 
the
torque question with 70-80 ft lbs it was only after
checking the Early
manual and satisfying myself that it was not in there.
 Then I went to
the VA State Safety Inspection criteria.  It said 70-
80 which I
reported.  Now we all know the State inspection laws
are infalable 
don't
we?  I will take the Late manual when I go to my
meeting with the 
Trooper
(act like I think it is for my car) and  offer to
stuff it up the 
State's
 A**.>>
