I just installed new baffles too, and changed those same brackets Phil is talking about. Also had to replace the bracket that holds the spider on (2 more case bolts off, then back on). I was told 75 in-lbs by the local AP/IA as well, but that chart (above) looks like it does call out 96. Figure I'll check with the engine re-builder on the field as well. I know we don't want to overtorque and stretch/weaken the bolts. Just want to be sure...is 75 good and 96 overtorqued, or is 96 good and 75 undertorqued? Is 25 in-lbs significant, over or under? Some respected posters here with differing opinions, so just asking the questions. Is there a ref that calls out 75?
On a related note, I also recently researched the torque call-out for the 1/4-20 nuts that attach my induction adapter elbow to the sump. Saw 40-50 called out in 1 ref, 75 in another and 96 in a third (if I was interpreting correctly). I'll be asking the re-builder that question as well, as 40-50 feels pretty weak, but I don't want to stretch those sump studs! Same size nuts and bolts attach the servo to the front of that elbow, so I'm looking for the appropriate torque for those as well. Thoughts?
Thanks!
Cheers,
Bob
