Gadgets site has a list of most torque specs ( maintenance tips) for the Nomad, according to his site it is indeed 14 ft.lbs.

Cj is right................. Most wrenches won't go that low. Becarefull, and antiseize the studs.

I just snug these down easy.... Then ride to check for leaks, and check for snug after a cooling cycle. Don't snug them hot.
