90 Deg Oil Filter Adapter Torque Spec?

The paperwork that came with my new bolt and gasket set said 50 ft/lbs. After I torqued it, though, a lot of people told me to be careful, as the bolts are easy to break. everyone also said they don't need to be any tighter than you would tighten your oil filter. Luckily, mine didn't break, and I have no leaks. I think there are different bolts, though depending on whether you have the aluminum or the original cast part. Maybe others will have some input.

oh, and dont' forget the little plastic washer that goes between the adapter and the block. If you forget this, the oil will not be filtered.
