964 oil pump torque

Tore apart, cleaned and ready to reassemble, can not find a torque spec for the 4 housing studs. Did a search, did not find torque spec. Thanks.

10 Nm = 7.375 ft-lbs = 88 inch pounds. I'd use new m6 nuts and lock washers, and loctite the threads. Also, the pump gears must all be reinstalled exactly in the same position and orientation as they came out. If you mixed them up, it's a good chance the pump will bind up and not rotate smoothly.
