    Torque specs on 2.7T valve covers?

    I can't find the info anywhere and I'm changing all the top end gaskets in my C5 and I was wondering if anyone had the torque specs for the valve cover and cam tensioner bolts?

    Thanks.

    Step Fourteen:
    Once the gaskets are in place reinstall the valve cover. When installing the valve cover bolts, hand tighten all bolts initially. Then proceed to tighten the rest of the way by turning each bolt 1/2 turn and going to the next bolt. This will ensure that the gasket is compressed evenly. Valve cover bolts should be tightened to approximately 7 ft-lbs.
