I have all of the torque specs for the front end of the Demon except for the K-frame mounting bolts. Does anybody have that torque setting or does it need to be torqued? I can't believe it is just tighten it up as hard as you can.

I don't know if there is a torque spec. for the K-frame,when i put the one back in my Scamp i just tightened as tight as i could with 1/2inch drive ratchet.
 
An old mechanic once told me that you tighten the bolt till it breaks then back off a 1/2 turn! ;)

There is a torque spec for every threaded fastener on the car, but from a practical stand point I would say as tight as you can get it with a 2' 1/2" breaker bar.
