Correct plug torque specs??

[junioRace]

Been looking around the site for the correct torque setting for tightening the plugs on the L. I've ran across 11-13 ft. lbs. Sound right??? And any preferences on the the torque wrench you use?? :beer:

what plugs are you useing? I torked my TR6s @ 14#s

also use a bit of anti sezzz on the threds

7-15 ft. lbs. is the spec. Remember the anti sieze as well. I usually go 15# with mine and if you can change them with the motor cold. The wrench isn't as important as the torque. Good luck.

I also went a # over on the tork. I dont want to shoot a plug.

Thanks for answering guys. Was aware of the anti-seize and changing them with the motor cold. Black Sleeper, will likely be installing TR6s on plug change. Running a 6# lower on a Diablo Chip right now. Gonna make a switch to a SCT XCal and spend some time at the dyno/tuner. Previous owner laid down 379/510, but the truck's A/F is WAY off at 17.5. EEK!! Getting the XCal, a CAI and the tune within the next month.

i usually will hand tighten them, then go just enough b/f i have to actually use strength, but a trq wrench would be good.
