Does anyone have the torque values for the engine mount to firewall bolts for a DC-3 and where that information can be found.
Thanks

I should have said that the engines are Wright 1820's

Check with Bill Muszala, owner of ATW Aviation in Marana AZ. Bill should be able to help you with that if you haven't found the data yet.

That info isn't in the maintenance manual? Aren't the QECs usually removed and reinstalled at those points?
