Here are the torque specs for the LB7 Duramax engine per factory Gm service manual.
Some of the specs are not included, but these are ones I feel unnecessary to post such as the torque for the hose clamps on the intake. Also, many of the parts are listed as what GM calls them which can be different from what many know them as., I kept things this way so that it could be alphabetical, so if you don’t see what you are looking for it is probably referred to as something else.
All specs will be in lb-ft or lb-in as most of the members on here will use these readings.
I must be really bored but hope this helps.
