Looking for the torque specs on the large 1inch bolt which holds the oil reservoir canister to the power steering pump housing on my 1956 Ford Fairlane. I have looked in the 1956 manual but no luck.
Thank you for your time.

I don’t think I’ve ever torqued one of those, just tightened down firmly. Never had one come loose.
