haynes and torque value

Putting together my motor, I happen to notice the wildly inaccurate torque
values listed in the Haynes manual (compared to the factory manual, which I
assume to be biblical).  How about 20 lbs.ft. for those little bolts that
hold the sump to the block. My pilfered torque chart shows a max of 6# for
bolts of that size.

Did anybody at Haynes ever READ that book???
