How many torque ft pounds trans to trans mount?

I am putting a new transmission mount on my 68 442 4 speed and i know the bolts that connect the cross member to the transmission mount are to be 50ft pound of torque but i cannot find the torque specs on the two bolts that attach the transmission mount to the transmission case in the original shop manual. Some one must know the answer to this one. Thank you in advance.

Off the top of my head- 25lbs/ft. I can check my 67 FSM. Stick or auto?

The closest thing I see in the FSM is for the TH: "case center support to transmission case......25"
You're right; it's not listed- very strange

Well i was already under the car and i initially torqued it to 35Ft pounds thinking that it should be more. They are rather large bolts but going into an aluminum casing. Good to know that i am not going crazy as like you i looked everywere in the shop manual and never found it. I wonder how many others ran into the same issue. Thanks for checking. Cute little girl at the steering wheel.
