Steve, I always use TDB.
Tight, Don't Break.

Seriously, about 40 ft/lbs. (with a little never sieze of course)

Try this link for general 429-514 Ford specs.

Oh yeah, the torque sequence starts in the middle and goes to one corner, then just do opposing bolt (go to the farthest one away) go to 20 FT LBS, then to 35 FT LBS, I'd advise copius amounts of anti-seize on all the bolts.  Have fun
