Hi guys,
I'll be replacing my valve cover and putting in a new gasket for it. Just wondering if anybody knows the proper torque specs for putting it back in?
Cheers;

Bart, weren't you going to get us some nice, shiny and superior hardware for mounting our valvecovers with?

I got the same ones Bart has.....they are stainless, and have a bolt head so torquing them down to specs is a lot easier than messing with the oe screws.
I used them in conjuction with the oe washer/spacer things. I think they were under .50 cents each from Ace Hardware. They look good.
