Default Engine torque specs

i have been working on pulling out and reinstalling an engine in a 01 RX300, is there a list of the torque specs out there?? I already know I can get them in a repair manual but don't want to spend the money so any help would be appreciated.

What Thomas said is true- there are an awful lot of specs to list. Not only that, but there's a lot of other useful info in the manual that you will no doubt need. Very small price to pay for all that the engine job is costing.

Pulled the engine out (without a manaul, thank you very much LOL) I got the info I needed so I'm too cheap to buy a $20 manual but the wealth of knowledge and experience is priceless. i'm having the short block assembley rebuilt so i only needed a few specs to finish the long block. So I'm happy to say I did it all without a stupid manual.
