Porsche spec is 40 flbs, you will find even 2 more and the crankshaft
after sitting for a while will take force to brake loose, but ok turning.

Try 23.72 ft/lbs, NOT 40. You'll increase the bearing crush and increase the bearing wear dangerously. BAD MOVE! IMO, the torque spec remains 24 ft/lbs, Raceware, stock studs, or whatever. The Cap'n
