Friends, I have another forum that I often participate with for concourse restorations. A project has been created to identify various key factory Torque Specs by each year of Gen1 mustangs. I have taken on the 71-73 group. I have the 72 factory manuals, but not 71, 73. I assume they will all be the same, but I would not want to publish incorrect information. Could I get the help of others to verify in the 71 and 73 manuals the torque specs for the following list. I will work on this over the weekend for the 72. This way I figure we can benefit from it as well.
