what is the torque tightness for a 1940 series 90?. I can't find it in the shop manual. It refers to page 77 but it's not on it.

I found the info in the manufacturing information booklet.
It's 70 -75 foot pounds.

FYI - when you don't know or can't find torque specs, there is a general torque vs bolt size chart.  Google it.
It'll get you in the ball park - good enuff.
