torque tightening specs

[Arlee]

Hello. I need the tightening specs for the pulley to crankshaft nut on 1948 59A engine. Haven't located it on line or in any of my books. Thanks.

I've never torqued that nut. Actually, I ran my current 8ba for a while without a nut on the pulley because I was modifying the spacing on that pulley.

There seems to be no torque spec for the pully/damper to crank bolt. The manual says "install the retaining bolt and washer". The 6 cylinder's spec is: 45-55#.
