Go to Lingenfelter Performance web site they have a pdf of all specs.

Almost all the covers (oil,timing, valley) are 18 ft lbs. If you don't have a TQ wrench that goes that low, you can go by feel and be just fine. Get all the bolts snug down, then another 3/4 turn is about 18 ft lbs. The most important thing is going in a star or criss-cross pattern when tightening the bolts to ensure the covers are sealed properly as your tightening down the fasterners. And yes it's OK to reuse the old bolts. The cover bolts on LS engines are not stretch bolts. Head bolts, cam bolts, and the crank bolt are the only TQ/stretch bolts on the motor.
