Default Intake tube flange torque...

I have an intake leak, as many have had. I'm replacing the gasket. I cannot find a torque value in the overhaul manual for the intake flange bolts. So I'm assuming that I use the torque for 1/4-20 which is the bolt and thread size. That value according to the overhaul manual is 96 in-lbs. Is that correct?

Default Torque

That is correct. Unless otherwise specified all Lycoming torque values are derived from the standard chart.
