I heard many don't bother with the torque, but I torqued my 29 coupe crankshaft at a 100 pounds.
I did the same, but I am talking about the Crankshaft Ratchet Nut. link below just in case we are not on the same page

From your link:
Holds pulley on crankshaft and crank end fits to turn motor. Case hardened steel. Excellent quality. For judging - raven finish or paint black -
***** torque to 80 ft. lbs. *****

With radiator in place, we just go through the rear of the pulley spokes & with a BLUNT end chisel in the air hammer, just give it a few burps, 180 degrees apart, in the cranknut "teeth"

Since motor was jacked up in car for clearance.
