Does anyone know the installation torque for the four M10 nuts that attach the transmission to the engine on a 997.2 GT3? I think it is 33 ft-lb, but I would like to be certain of this.
I just installed the 996 LWF and 4.0RS pp and disc with the engine in the car. There is a summary of the procedure in 6speedonline posted by iaporschedoc 2-16-09 on the this for those interested.
Thanks.

Thanks John. My 996 Carrera shop manual shows the same figures, but does not address the GT3. I thought the GT3 figures might be higher as the 997.2 GT3 has only four M10 nuts holding the trans to the engine.
As to the 6speed refernce, I couldn't find anything on clutch replacement engine in car in RL.
