Water Pump torque value for nuts on studs

I apologize for not doing the proper research, but I wonder if anyone has the torque value for the water pump, or should I just use the generic value for the 5/16” stud?
Thanks,
Lin
 
Lin, you could look up the standard torque table for the stated size nut (the table gives maximum recommended torque). Or you could use Hylomar on the gasket and snug the nuts up to where you feel comfortable and see if anything leaks.
