As you have found, there is no torque spec for u-joints in any shop manual, except for the 1966 supplement - which doesn't do you any good since the '66 bolts are a different size from the '63.

However, Brad Bodie posted a response to a similar question a while back. You can view that from here: viewtopic.php?p=75151#p75151

That may help...
