I used the lower end of the range for bolts of that
size. If you need the actual values I can get them from my AME's reference
book when I go to the hangar next, probably tomorrow. Let me know. These
are bolts that need to be checked regularly, rather like the bolts for a wooden
prop. The material being clamped is wood and is more compressible than
metal and the bolt can become loose leading to cycling of the bolt and probably
fatigue. Worse than that it is a progressive situation as the looser it
gets the looser it gets! If you see what I mean. The same situation
can occur with the main spar bolts.

Can someone please tell me what the torque
specs are for the engine mounting bolts? (where mounts attaches to
firewall)
Thanks
