Wait, are you sure, those numbers are Foot pounds? and not newton meters? or Inch pounds? seems kinda weak.  between 7-20 footlbs over all. and all i have is Footlbs torque wrench.

Yes they are Ft Lbs.
You have to be gentle with the small torque numbers to feel when it clicks on my torque wrench.

Yup broke 2, # 11, and the one just south of 6, welp, hope it holds for 2 months, aint got any choice right now.  Im gonna start preping the other bottom ends now.  If anyone has top ends, IE cylenders to heads they wish to ditch cheap, let me know.
