I have just read lots about V8 engine sump plugs but cannot see any reference to recommended torque.
I usually just do it up tight. Not very scientific. What value is correct.

I think I have found the answer. 33ft lbs.
I got this from workshop.manuals.com. It refers to Landrover V8.
I suppose it is the same but it does not mention year of manufacture.
I got thoughtful about this because my MX5 has an aluminium engine and of course bolt torque is critical.
