Default What's the torque specification on a b-series valve cover?

I'm taking the valve cover off tomorrow, because the stock black paint is chipping off everywhere. What's the torque specs on the bolts on a b18b?

I've never done it a million times but Ive done it a few...just make sure your gasket has no cracks and sits right...then tighten it snugly.
