UPDATE: So I remove the air filter, and then I see coolant along the intake manifold gasket around the #1 bolt near the front. I check the #1 manifold bolt, and it is loose very loose. Break-out the torque wrench, and start tightening per the sequence. Started with 10 ft/lbs, everything OK. Then went to 15 ft/lbs, and the #1 bolt pops (other bolts were OK at 15 by the way). Luckily I was able to remove the broken #1 bolt completely (thank you GOD!!). So now a couple of questions:

- What should the torque setting be on these bolts? I was going to work up to 25 ft/lbs, but based on what happend, not sure anymore.. The manifold is a single-pane Victor Jr. (Ford Racing #M-9424-D302), and the heads are Edelbrock Victor Jr. Really having a hard-time confirming the torque values for these..

- Should I just replace the broken bolt, or replace the entire bolt set?

- What does this do to the torquing sequence? Do I need to loosen all and start all over?

- Or do I need to start from scratch and replace the gasket?

Suggestions??
