      HELP!! Solid Body mount EMERGENCY Question

      I'm in the process of installing DSE Solid body mounts on a 67 Firebird right now. I type this to you with grease and dirt all over my hands... How much foot pounds of torque do i use for the SOLID Body mount subframe mount bolts?? How about for the radiator support bolts??

      My GM manual claims 75-95 for the subframe bolts and 35 for the radiator supports. As i was doing this I basically BARELY tightened the bolts before reaching the max torque reading stated above. Then it occurred to me that the GM manual was referring tot he oem rubber mounts which would be "sqoushed" under too much pressure. A solid body mount obviously would not be affected. Did I just answer my own question??

      Should I just basically tighten the bolts until I cant tighten no more???
