Does anyone know the torque settings for the body to chassis bolts?

Thanks

That is very strange Chris, I just read the entire procedure for removing the body and replacing the body in the Lotus Service Notes and no where it says the torque specs for the 12 bolts

Fascinating - I too have just scoured all my reference material and can find it nowhere.

There is, however, a special Bibs setting, which is 'Doesn't Matter'. :devil:

I'd take a guess at 40 ft/lb, but might check with the factory on Tuesday.
