Olds 215 Engine Oil Pan Bolt Torque Spec

Hello,
Would anybody who has a service manual for a 61-63 do me a favor and confirm the torque spec for the oil pan on the 215 V8 engine? One unofficial reference online states 6-15 lb-ft. 6 sounds about right, 15 sounds high, so I would like to confirm because if there is a chance to strip threads I will do it.

Thanks.

...nevermind, I was able to find a copy of the engine section of the FSM - 6-15 lb-ft is the correct range.
