Shifter Lubrication and Torque Spec Help? (archive)

Another busy Saturday ressurecting the car...:) Can someone help me with some torque specs/manual info since mine hasn't arrived yet?
First question...I'm replacing the shifter linkage in my 83 633csi. The previous owner included the linkage, but not all the documentation for the installation - I'm getting ready to reassemble everything and I'm not sure what type of lubrication would be best for all the joints. Since I have no idea how long this part has been sitting, waiting to be installed...I don't want to assume that everything is lubricated enough...especially the Lubricating felt in the selector rod joint. (I'm assuming I just put some lube on the felt and reassemble this part?)

Second question - I dropped the driveshaft and will be replacing the flex disc (guibos?)...but what are the torque specs on all these bolts that go through the disc? Just don't want to be screwing this part up...this is enough car fun I need for a while...especially since next Saturday will be exhaust replacement day...:)

Pete
