12 inch-pounds = 1 foot-pound
132 inch pounds = 11 foot-pounds

Lower intake bolts are listed in a torque spec of ft/lbs or N/m as the pieces of material that are being bolted together are both metal. The upper intake is usually a composite material and will be listed as in/lbs. If our upper intake is a metal material, the 132in/lbs is good as it relates to 11 ft/lbs. If still in doubt, go to the source and avoid confusion. Go to the dealer as they will look up the specs and give you the proper information as most shops get our info on the internet from GM.

Yeah, it's going to straight away bolt in. you would be wanting a clean eu nonetheless, and once you're seeking to make your series II quicker, why not basically shorten the pulley, get exhaust, and headers? it's going to keep you a good number of funds and many artwork.
