Does anyone know the torque specs on the valve cover and oil pan on a 2003 GCV 3.3?
Do you have a Haynes Manual? They have torque specs.

Oil Pan bolts - 105 inch, lbs (8 to 9 ft. lb)

Tighten cylinder head cover bolts (2) to 12 N·m (105 in. lbs.),
I would torque up in stages, say three, crisscrossing as much as possible, and not overly trust the torque wrench. Get a feel for it.
 
The valve cover and oil pan are the same? 105 inch pounds?
That's correct per Post #3.

RTV for gaskets? Better check as to what gasket manufacturer says.
