  When replacing a clutch, what is the correct torque for the Pressure Plate attach bolts to the Flywheel?

  17-20 ft-lbs

For a quick resource for future reference:

  You're welcome, but really no thanks is due to me as I learned about the Van Pelt site from others on this forum when starting my first project a couple of years back. Glad it is of help to you. Suggest also, if you have not already, pick up the appropriate shop manual and 'Ford Book' for your car from this site. This was recommended to me early on in the process by others on this site and I delayed the purchase, only to later find out it would have saved me significant time in research and 'doing it right the first time' if I'd purchased when suggested.
