Does anyone know what the torque value for the boss mount bracket for the planepower alternator is?

Also where can I find the required tension for the alternator belt.

I use the Superior Air Parts Inc. Vantage Engine Maintenance Manual.  

Most things translate equally from the IO-360 to the IO-540.  You can 

find the document here:

Alternator belt tension is in section 72-10-00.

Thanks Brian,



I also found after some research the required bolt torques on the B & C website. I believe that will be the same for planepower.



1.Mount alternator on engine case. Use the two bolts that are already in the bracket and bolt the bracket to the boss with the two 5/16" NC tapped holes. Torque the bolts to 110-150 in-lbs. Safety wire the bolts and bend the tabs up against the flat of the heads.



2.Mount the belt tension arm in the standard location. The bolt is taped to the belt tension arm. Install the other bolt (already on the alternator) through the slot in the tension arm.

Michael



3.Install the belt (prop must be removed), adjust the tension of the belt, and tighten the two belt tension arm bolts to 110-150 in-lbs. Safety wire these two bolts also.

4.Tighten the long pivot bolt to 360-480 in-lbs.
