4.3L Oil pan torque sequence and torque, tech info needed.

[theboatfloats!]

Any tech info on the torquing sequence and torquing required for this 2011 Chevy Silverado 4.3L that I am marinizing? I believe that the equivalent Mercruiser engine serial number is 1A1A063240 (2007) ? CURRENT
Thank you!

All the Mercruiser service manuals say to start in the center and work outward in each direction. 18 ft lbs.

When you put that back together you ought to put Mercruiser Perfect Seal on both sides of the front timing cover gasket. Also put some in the harmonic balancer keyway or you'll get a little oil drip. And replace the front crank seal while you are in there, put a little grease on it to extend it's life.
