However, What I discovered today is that the older manual states both 8.8 and 10.9 specs in the torque section but the newer one only lists one spec, the 10.9 spec, in the equivalent section without specifying it is 10.9. If I had just pulled out my *old* Bentley manual, I would have gotten it right! A little frustrated with Bentley right now. Glad I stumbled across your comment...wish I had stumbled across it two days earlier...
