Default Torquing bolts

Does anyone know the torque setting for the little bolts that hold the timing chain covers, the valve covers and the intake stacks. Trying searching Internet but nothing comes up. Already over torqued and stripped one bolt so looking for the correct setting.

Not sure about the stacks, but the valve and timing covers are like 7ft/lbs. Use a small 1/4" drive ratchet and only get them wrist tight. Or you can get yourself an inch/lb torque wrench.

Sorry the intake manifolds (stacks). Attaches to the top of the valve.

Are you talking about item #12 in the picture? It's a 6m/m nut, so I would guess that 7 ft/lbs would be in the ballpark.
