86 alternator torque specs?

[Peter M.]

Does anyone have the torque specs for the alternator to bracket mounting bolts for an L98 engine?

I have rebuilt my original alternator and am about to reinstall it. Looking through the Shop Manual I can't seem to find the torque specs for the alternator to bracket mounting bolts. I did find the specs for the mounting bolts for the cold air pump which are 25 ft. lbs for the 13mm bolts and 18 ft. lbs for the 10mm bolts. Are these specs close enough to use for the alternator?

Peter if the fasteners are the same size and thread pitch then you should be okay for this application. If you wanted to double check just look and see if there is a "standard torque" section in your manual and that should cover it.

Thanks, still looking....
