Ok Folks,

Here is a simple one for you. On a 1949 Cub how tight is the oil screen to be torqued? I will add to this question the Oil pan. I know the gasket on the oil pan can not be squished to death or a leak will happen. I also have a 1941 A and the same question would apply for it as well. Thanks in advance for the many replies that I am about get.

You mean the screen on the oil pump sump it just slides in place no bolts just bend the tabs so the screen can be replaced under the cover on the sump.
 
That's the oil pump, if I'm reading you right. Two bolts hold it in? -- no particular torque value on that type part, just make them tight with a 3/8 ratchet.
 
There is no specific torque setting called for in the GSS-1007 or the -1008. But if I had to venture a guess, I'd say 11-14lbs, the same as the other 5/16" bolts used on the engine in non-critical applications.

Or as CNKS said, tight with a 3/8" ratchet.
