I cant find the Torque Settings Info for the Thermostat Housing upper and also the Lower thermostat housing to the Head.

I've been getting leaks with the where the gasket for thermostat but it has a deteriorated surface but I'm using sealant and still leaking. I just want to get the correct torque settings just incase I'm not overtightening or undertightening.

I've just pulled off the lower part to the head and first time I've removed it

It's alright didn't need the correct torque anyway. It's not hard to stuff it up. My previous lower housing was pitted and not straight that it would leak where the gasket sits. But found out that Sprints has them for sale brand new
