I got (18MM Socket), 2 bolts mount to bracket, and (16mm Socket) 2 bolts bracket to tranny, are they the same like for the TB side, I believe 18mm bolts are 74Lbs, and 16mm Socket bolt are 33 plus 1/4 turn?

I think you should be good there, but I'm not sure of what you are describing for the 16mm head bolts..

The 18mm bolts are single-use torque to yield so there's a torque spec and a quarter turn...probably the same as the other side, as listed in the Timing Belt pdf listed in my sig.

Thxs for the reply but on the timing belt side the 18mm Socket bolt, there is no more 1/4 inch turn it is straight 74 ft lbs tq... it used to be 33 plus 1/4 turn if I'm not mistaken

From the timing belt PDF (page 8) the 16mm bolts are 30ft lbs + 1/4 turn, the 18mm bolts were 44 + 1/4 turn. They are essentially the same as the trans side.

The 18mm bolt torque has since been updated to 74 ft lbs with no additional 1/4 turn.
