Does anyone know what the torque is for the bolts on the strut tower brace on top of the struts I can't seem to find a repair manual for torque specs

Whatever it is, I'm sure it's not much.

Is that really the spec?

The torque spec on my m3 (and it also was attached to the strut bolts) was something like 28#. I didn't know that until I sheared a bolt thinking it was a much higher torque spec.

Mine (bought a spare) is off being chromed. Amazing so many have similar ideas. My plastic valve covers (NOT engine covers) are being chromed also. We will see how they turn out.
