I read once in my shop manual that 7 INCH-POUNDS [not foot-pounds] was about right for the cork pan gaskets on my red/red w/wht. top 1963 Dodge Dart GT convertible, 225 slant six, push button automatic on the dash gear selector I use to drive around in. The day I sold it, it would still burn rubber!

I like the idea of letting her sit and soak a bit before running.

When cars were art, and not aerodynamic eggs.
