I'll answer my own question.  I spoke with Mark at the factory and he said
to use 35 ft-lbs for the torque on the LNC2 main spar wing bolts.  This
torque value is less than the standard torque for the size AN bolt.  Due to
the crush limitations of the fiberglass structure, he recommends using the
lower torque value.


BTW: This torque value is not documented in the manual.
