I thought the torque spec was in inch lbs... However when I do mine I just lightly snug it all the way around and then repeat. You don't want the valve cover to be super tight. You'll pinch the gasket if you do and defeat the purpose of the whole replacement.

Just the rubber gasket, if you order it from a dealer, that is.
