Default Urgent help please: Torque settings for alternator/pulley brackets etc

Hey, I'm just putting my engine back together but I can't find the torque specs for the alternator bolts, or the pulleys including the bolts on the face of the pulleys.
I'm not looking for the tensioners, that's in the fsm EM section but I can't find the above.

Cheers for any help!

FSM section in my version is SC-30 (SC Starting and Charging under Electrical).

If not mistaken it is 2 ugga dugga's, but be careful 2.5 ugga dugga's will shear the bolts.

Cheers for that, one of those moments of not being able to find it at all !
I'll check them again tonight as I've got to adjust the tensioners anyway.

Is that what your looking for?

I would think the torque for the pulley bolt would be very similar to the idler pulley torques 23-28 fl/lbs.

Yep (also info posted on 2nd post) as well as the 17mm long bolts from the pulley brackets (3 of them). I think I have them around 55nm for now and paint marked. With the tensioners I could only find the central nut torque and not the brackets. It's weird just due to the fact it must be installed in a certain order and there's nothing in the fsm about that?

I make sure every bolt/nut is torqued to spec when I work on it as too many have snapped
