My build progresses, but one problem I have is oil leaking from the gearbox, I have tracked this down to the bolts holding the gearbox together are not overly tight. Despite many searches I cant find what torque setting the bolt should be at, can anybody point me in the direction or give me...

I want to put an Battery isolater switch so I can cut off anything coming from the battery when the car is not used. I have had some conflicting advice, some say it should be on the red/power cable, other say it should be the Earth. What does the collective think please. Don.
