I am resealing the lower crankcase seal on my 2005 GXP and need the torque specs (ft lb & degree) and tightening sequence for the crank main bearings when reinstalling the lower half of the block. I have searched the forum for a previous post but have been unsuccessful. Any help would be very much appreciated.

First Pass = 15 lb/ft
Second/final pass = 65*

Sequence;

First is the outer bolts on each main and you're starting at the center bearing, and working towards each cap out from the center, alternating each end.
-Start at center bearing cap outer bolt, front side of block
-Second is the outer bolt on the opposite side

Move to the next cap towards the back of the engine
- Front side, outer bolt
- Outer bolt opposite

Move to the next cap towards the front of the motor
- Front side outer bolt
- Outer bolt opposte

Move the last cap at the back of the engine
- Front side outer bolt
- Outer bolt opposite

Move to the last cap at the front of the engine
- Front side outer bolt
- Outer bolt opposite

Repeat this sequence for the inner bolts. Then repeat the sequence for the second/final pass.
