Default Torque specs for the Harmonic Balancer.

Ok, YES, i have serched. but I found 85ft pound and 130ft pounds and other people just say tighten it and the engine will tighten it as u drive. so i need a firm answer because i changed out my Block just because my other one came off and broke the threads.

Its the Big pulley. i need to know how to tight to put it. i tightened it real hard untill i felt my tranmition about to break with it in 5th gear and the brakes smashed. it this good enough or is it gunna come off down the road?

It's fine the way you did it. I hand tightened mine, drove for a couple weeks and it's fine
