Can someone tell me torque specs for a 95 montero sr camshaft bearing caps (12mm and 10mm bolts). I am unable to locate them in fsm. Searched online and found specs for 6g72 to be 14 ft-lbs for the 12mms and 8 ft-lbs for the 10mms.

This is what I've been using for torque specs, since I couldn't find the information in the reassembly section of the FSM. This is on page 00-33 of the FSM.

The top part got cut off a little bit. The top section lists "Standard bolt and nut tightening torque" and the bottom section you can see is for "Flange bolt and nut tightening torque".

Edit: Just wanted to point out that they are listing the actual bolt size, not the socket size, so make sure not to over torque. Those bolts will stretch and break if over torqued.

I would assume it is that way due to the fact there are no bearings for the camshaft and the head and caps act as the bearings instead. I can always check my haynes but that won't be till late.

Doesn't give any difference on the size of bolts for the specs.

These are from autodata - take it with a pinch of salt - especially the crank bolt torques as they have been reviewed.

So it would be safe to say 14 ft-lbs for cam caps and 130 ft-lbs for crank pulley.
