Default Crank Flange torque specs

Hi Barners,

I'm replacing the flex plate on my 56 y block. medium case fordomatic. The spring ears are cracked and the rivets are loose.

I have the new flex plate and wondered what to torque the bolts to.

Cheers

There should be 3 thin reinforcing rings included with the new flexplate.
They fit between the bolt heads and flexplate.
