Default I've looked in the worksho

I've looked in the workshop manual, and I can't find any torque specs listed for this nut.

These manifold studs that the carbs get attached to use standard nuts pressing down on special tapered washers... Over torqueing, I understand, can contribute to the carb base warpage.

Any idea of this spec?

Ideas?

There is no specific spec I'm aware of. This is a good example of an area where "feel" is critical.

One must feel (sense) that the nuts are tight enough to never loosen, all the same and not over tight.
