This is something I have not been able to find anywhere. I've searched and have looked through the GM service manual. The manual states that the bolts and studs need to be torqued in sequence. The diagram shows an arrow pointing to the left. I partially assume that it means torque from right to left. If anyone has a proper order let me know.
I am really not the biggest help, for I don't have the diagram in front of me, but am almost 100% sue this is it. You want to start by putting all the bolts/nuts on hand tight.
Here is a quick MS Paint Diagram. LOL
Ya that should be fine, its a plastic manifold so the sequence isn't super critical.
I've never even torqued my intake manifold bolts, I just put them on with mechanics feel.
Never had any issues.
I actually have an aluminum intake that's why I ask. I am not sure if my profile is up to date, but I will give that a try.
Thanks guys.
