10-13 on the 1/4" cover bolts and internal rocker box bolts. (but I usually don't go that tight on the cover bolts unless it has copper washers/hex head bolts) 15-18 on the 5/16" rocker box bolts.

Be sure to go super slow and torque each one a little ata time until you reach spec. If you don't follow a cross pattern you risk squeezing a gasket out of place. Easy does it!

My umbrella seal was on the right side, of the spacer that goes between the rockers and rocker cover.

They go in towards the manifold/carb, the front goes on the left, the rear goes on the right. If you look next to the umbrella valve you will see a small nole abt 1/16" that goes through the plate. If you drill it out to 1/8" you will improve oil drain back.
