pressure plate bolt torque? (shouldered vs. nonshouldered)

Hello List,

I need to bolt on the clutch pressure plate for my 5kcstq.

The Bentley mentions two types of bolts, shouldered and non-shouldered, with different torque specs for
each.

I'm not sure what they mean buy "shouldered".  Does this mean a section without threads at the base of
the bolt?  That's the best guess I can make.

It can't mean the "head" of the bolt, right?  I mean, any bolt that is going to be able to hold the pressure
plate on is going to have a head on it.

Too bad there's no picture of the two types of bolts.

Any help is appreciated.  I don't want to use the wrong torque spec.

Thanks,

Ken
