I just replace my oil pump and I had to take my crankshaft oil deflector/ windage tray off to access it and I can't find any torque specs for those nuts that mount it I was wondering if anyone knows the torque specs for the crankshaft oil deflector/windage tray.

It does not show the oil deflector/windage tray torque specs, it only shows the oil pump bolt which is 41 lbs. Check out the images (below). I think you could be safe at 25-foot pounds. Sorry we can't be more help.

I replaced my oil pump on my car listed above and having to do so I had to take my windage tray off to access it, but I can't find the torque specs for the retaining nuts that mount the windage tray. I was wondering if anyone knows what they are.
