18ftlb iirc; if the case is corroded where the bolt washers sit they will crumble so I tighten the four lower ones quite agressively to ensure they crumble as I tighten, rather than just nip them otherwise when they corrode more the tension is relieved and case weeps oil at joint, but you don't want to be too agressive or you can strip the threads in the case they are not busting strong
