I'd have to check the FMS again but I didn't even torque mine that much. I was feeling the pucker factor kicking in and chickened out.
Edit...
I checked and it's 10 inch lbs. The reason I had to remove my park housing is because I broke the clamp bolt making the park cable adjustment. It only...
That's the clamp bolt that holds the cable in place. You just loosen the nut but not all the way. Gently tap it at the threaded end to move it. You'll feel the cable loosen up. You don't remove it. Also when reinstalling the cable you don't want to over tighten it. It will snap. I believe it's...
Here's the rear band shaft that was mentioned.
I'd get it real clean with parts cleaner then puff some baby powder all over everything and watch where it's coming from. Might save you more work if it's only the gasket or cable o-ring. Still involved to remove the cable and housing. There's a...

Cass once told me that 240 ft lbs was extreme. The size of the thread and nut doesn't warrant that much torque. I broke...
And do them all. Some have been known to be just the end studs but many have found it could be any of the holes. I like to use Permatex #2 or Teflon paste.
I don't know about the 2bbls but with the edelbrock carbs they used a blue seal and ethanol gas would eat them up. There's a red/orange one that is ethanol resistant and works great.
