I am not talking about the bolts that hold the compressor down to the bracket. 15-21 foot pounds on the ones that hold the compressor together would break the ears off.
The 4 bolts that hold the 2 halves of the compressor pump itself have no specs given as the compressor is a non-serviceable item. If you've taken them out or loosened them, the compressor needs to be replaced so it doesn't matter what you tighten them to.
Listings are only given for the:
A/C heat shield bolts 5.5-8Nm (50-71in/lbs)
A/C clutch bolt 11-14Nm (98-123 in/lbs)
A/C compressor mounting bolts 21-29Nm (15-21 in/lbs)
