Trans Valve body & front pump Torque specs

need both the specs for torquing the front pump on a 727 trans, and the torque specs for a Griner aluminum valve body? cant find the specs in Griners website and instructions.
You will need an "inch lb torque wrench", When I installed my {cast iron} 'Turbo Action' valve body to case screws it said "8-10/ft-lbs".... But my Torqueflite Handbook says "valve body screws" are (for trans years 1960-67) "28 inch lbs" & (for years 1968 & up) "35/inch-lbs" & the "valve body to case bolts" are torqued at "100/inch-lbs" & the filter is "35/inch-lbs", the pan to case is "150/inch-lbs or "20/ft-lbs"... Front pump cover to case bolts, (for trans years 1960-1967) bolts torque are "150/inch-lbs", (for years 1968 & up) front pump to case bolts are torqued at "175/inch-lbs" ... I'm really not sure if the "Aluminum valve body" would have any different torque specs or not, I couldn't find any different specs for aluminum valve body in my Manuals I have here... Maybe you could call Grinner Engineering or Mancini Racing Tech line, 1 of those guys, at 1 of those places may know if they are different TQ specs or not....
All the torque specs are from page 228 of 'Torqueflite A-727 Transmission Handbook' published by Hp books-1399 by author Carl Monroe, it's a great information & reference book for building & modifying Torqueflite Transmissions... I got it from Mancini Racing quite a while ago now.... I hope those are the numbers your looking for, I'm by far no trans expert, I always have to refer to my reference books or manuals...
