Snug and then a schosh more. Don't overtighten. Factory service manual simply sez to tighten evenly and don't crush the cover.

5/16 18 bolt coated in nickle neverseize has a k factor of .158 stress level of 15000 psi would be 20 inlbs 30000 is 39 inlbs  45000 59 inlbs. t=k.d.og.ag/n.12
t=assembly torque value
k=nut factor
d=nominal fastener diameter
og=target gasket stress (psi)
n =number of bolts
Ag= gasket stress area (in^)
12= conversion to Ft-lbs
Hope this helps. Formula comes from guidlines and methodology for assembling and tensioning threaded connections.

The ones who amaze me are the ones who dont  comprehend mechanical engineering like Garry. The guy asked for a torque value I gave him one .Then told him how to figure one for the compressability of cork /fibrous gasket so that he wouldnt squeeze it into or out. It would be nice for once to have a technical forum I guess thats to much to require.
