The manual says (not specified) tighten them until they are snug otherwise you may snap one.

Tommy - I think I went with around 8, not all that tight and it seems to be working O.K. I have barnett heavy duty springs in mine though so you may want to go just a little more. I wish they would just have a specified number.

Dusty - could you ask Colby what he usually torques them to and post back. I'm curious to know - thanks.

If you look in the service manual you will find a section in the book that tells you the size of the bolts and what they should be torqued to. At least in the 250r book.I would not go over 80 in.lbs on the pressure plate bolts.
