i got the oil baffle tightened to 19 Nm
Big end caps to 18 Nm then a further 90 degrees
Main bearing cap bolts & nuts to 80 Nm
Taken from the haynes manual
Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary... that's what
gets you.

The big end bolts on a zetec are the weekest point. I wouldnt personally.

Big end bolts are stretch bolts and are torque to yeild and should be replaced each time unless they are ARP bolts that can be re used.
Main cap bolts can be re used.
