What are normal salaries for manufacturing engineering positions fresh out of college? I’m seeing 65k, is it reasonable to ask for more than that?

You can expect $70 – $90k for bachelors out of engineering is average. You can also reasonably get $100k+ if you have skills and know how to upsell yourself in interviews (and you have the promised skills to avoid ethical issues).

I had offers of $120k but turned them down to pursue a PhD.

It would depend on the location of the job. $65k would be reasonable for a low/medium-low living cost city. $80 to $110k would be appropriate for a high cost of living city.
