Front engine mount torque specs
 
Just got my urethane front engine mount (thanks SPD Racing!) and since I have yet to purchase a factory manual I have no idea as to the torque specs for the fasteners. Anyone know what they should be? Also, I haven't crawled under the car yet, but looking at it from above it seems it might be tricky holding up the engine while I change this out. Any pointers from those who have already done this? I did a search but couldn't find anything.

RISM, pm that information...do NOT post that publically again.

tighten it untill it's good and snug. drive it for a few miles and then re-snug it.

p.s. if you just had a transaction with SPD I suggest you go to our VENDOR REVIEW section and leave your comments.

Thanks Roddimus, but being an engineer I like torque specs. I will probably go out and spring for some sort of manual. Mainly I want to know how to support the engine without putting a hole in the oil pan!

I'm going to head to the vendor section before logging off. I like to give credit to those who are good to deal with, and flame those who aren't! Besides, I have to help Chris keep all his RX-7s!
