Stock 7.3 Turbo bolts torque specs?????

I am rebuilding my stock turbo on my 2000 7.3 and i have it all in pieces and am ready to put it back together and am wondering what the torque specs are for all of the bolts on the turbo??? Center section to turbine housing, compressor seal plate to center section, compressor wheel to shaft, and compressor housing to the seal plate? I cant find any torque specs anywhere. Does anyone know what they are? or where i can find them????

dont really know the torque specs, but I used red locktite on them all, and hit them with the Dewalt impact driver for a couple seconds when tite. mine never backed out.

EDIT: sorry, didnt get all the info you asked.

comp wheel should be spun on, and when you crank the truck up it will tighten the rest of the way up on its own. No locktite.

I tightened the housing bolts pretty tight, with red locktite.

this is c razy


all the 12 point bolts- 185-200inch lbs
compressor wheel- 100 inch lbs
waste gate- 100 inch lbs

and use blue loctite it will be a lot better if you ever have to disassemble again

Well thats great then. I realy only build powerstroke turbo's. I had to make it sound like i was dumb to get some answers from ppl tho lol. But yea i rebuild Powerstroke turbos just about every night. I have been just tightening the bolts to where i felt they where tight, but now i actually have a torque spec i'll be a little more confident.... Thanks for the info!!
