Anyone have the torque specs for intake manifold and exhaust header for a 95 XJ?

There is a diagram with the torque and sequence of order for torquing those fasteners. Hard to describe it, but:
(1)The bottom row, EXCEPT the two end nuts ( or bolts) are to be torqued first @ 24 ft lb
(2)Then the two end nuts and the top/center next @23 Ft Lb
(3) then the remainder @ 24 ft lb.

Hope that's clear enough

Bill

Those specs are a bit funny. The 1 lbs difference is within the margin of error for almost all commercial torque wrenches. I did all bolts at 25 lbs starting from the inside and worked around circle out to the corners. Good luck if you're trying to do this with the cylinder head already bolted on....
