What size torque wrench do I need for the valve cover bolts? I know it's inch pounds I just wasn't sure on the TW size. Thanks for your time.

You can use any size torque wrench you want that is in inch pounds and not foot pounds and will torque to 71 in lbs.

Some of them are pretty small and the scale only goes up to about 50 inch pounds so you just need one that will get to that torque.

Below is the entire process that includes the torque spec. Please let us know what questions you have. Thanks
