Why is everyone always so concerned about torque? If there is no spec listed, then no need to worry. So.... no there is no spec. Just make them tight. I also suggest loctite on those bolts. If you absolutely need a spec, torque them to 20-25ftlbs. Depends on how good the aluminum is, and how long of a bolt you have.

I have no idea what bolt the dealer would be referring to. The bolts that run through the iso-mounts are not a torqued bolt, and on the older engines, (solid mounted) the spec would be much higher. Sounds like the dealer guessed.
