Ok, got my fix it kit, and a big thanks out to Cowboy Diesel/Nate for the help finding this kit, and it looks pretty straight forward from the directions included. Just have few questions about it before I get started here in the next few days. I just rebuilt the Vac pump and want to give that a few days testing to check it out before I tear into the next one.

It calls for two seperate torque wrenches listed. The first bolts call for 92 foot pounds and the next ones need 50 inch pounds. I got the wrenches to do the 92 ft pounds, probably won't use em cause I don't trust the accuracy anymore anyway. But what the hell is this 50 inch pounds all about. How tight is that.

Also looking for advice about the cover gasket. The directions say it's optional to use a factory gasket or tube sealant. Is one way better then another for this application.
