installing new pressure plate in need of torque specs for the bolts

I have maybe missed it in the TM
but I could really use this info for re-installing the trans ,
2nd run at this after trashing 2 plates and throwout bearings

Also I have a new throwout bearing. but the grease is kinda hard and does not allow free smooth rolling , should i drill into the bearing and use like a chainsaw bar grease tool to inject new grease?



ThX guys

I'm don't know these type clutches, but I would go by the size of the bolt, both dim. and grade if you can see on the head. You can find a standard torque chart on line and use that as a guide, would not be going too tight that would worry about snapping any, yet should be tight. I always use thread lock on all the bolt in the flywheel, clutch area.
AS far as trying to grease the throw out bearing, I don't know if that would help or are you just going to make a problem?

Here's one of the TM pages that covers that.
