Oil Bracket Bolt Torque Specs
Does anyone know the torque specs for the bolts on the the oil bracket? I'm converting my CT200H to use an oil filter rather than the cartridge.

They look puny so I would just do it "nice and tight." and this is coming from a torque snob. it's a prius basically. not a SpaceX reuseable rocket. not the end of the world lol. fleet mechanics are out there zapping these engines around by the dozens daily by feel.

go at it....
If bolting to aluminum I learned after years and years of wrenching on aluminum blocks, once the bolt gives resistance when tightening, hold the ratchet halfway on the handle and go about 45 to almost 90 more and done. Sometimes I grab to the drive portion the closer the bolt is been tighten on the aluminum surface. For safety, a drop or so of medium thread lock.
