guys,
Does any one know the torque spec for the 2 bolts that go through the mounting block to attach the nose of the transmission to the car on a 73 911? It is the pointed bolt, part # 901.305.317.00, that uses a 19 mm socket. Neither Haynes nor the factory spec book seem to think that a specific number is important but I would prefer not to strip out the threads in the body. On the other hand, having the bolts drop out and cause the nose of the transmission to gouge out the pavement is probably not going to win me any friends at the Ohio Department of Roads and Dirt. Right now I am using 50 foot/pounds.

Thanks
