Question IA Valve Cover Torque Specs?

Hey everyone-

Just received my IA valve covers and I would like to install tonite, so I can drive the car to Monterey.

Unfortunately there is no info on torque specs and it's too late to call IA. What do you guys think?

Thanks,

Dale

I'd go the factory spec of 6 foot lbs and tighten further if any leaks appear, the IA covers are more ridged than factory so this should work fine.
Most of the time the factory covers warp because of over tightening.
