E-mail Z1 directly. They are very good at answering questions, usually within 24 hours.

I would say that it is the same as the torque required on the stock manifold.

its basically hand tight 8 ft lb is basically nothing if you do too much it can cause problems, it was the same way when installing spacer on my old 350
