8.7 lb/ft.
BUT, even more important is that you must get to this in 3 stages and also the correct sequence must be followed. The sequence is too complicated to post here. Best to have the Helm manual with the diagram.

DO NOT OVER TORQUE

I have broke 3 in the two times I have removed my pan. And that;s because I couldn't find the torque specks in the freaking manual.
