what year is the car? is it a stock flywheel? do you mean the clutch to flywheel bolts? if it's that then they would be at 13 to 20 ft-lbs.

RacerX is correct 13-20 ft-lbs on the pressure plate. If you are installing a light weight flywheel those six bolts should be torqued to 30-46 ft-lbs.

Good luck
