FSTB bolts, factory torque spec.?

I just wanted to confirm that the torque specification for the bolts that I'm going to remove/reinstall when installing my brand new Strut Tower Bar is 29-40 ft-lb's. I was checking out the factory service manual I have on my computer, and just wanted to make sure I'm looking at the correct diagram.

29-40 lb-ft is correct.

I set mine at 35...approximately right in the middle of the recommended 29 to 40 ft-lb range.

Thanks fellas, I actually installed before reading this thread and set it to 31-32 lb-ft.

By the way, what a difference! I'm not lowered, so this being my only suspension mod makes this very profound. Car feels much more solid in turns.
