what could happen by over tightening the clutch pressure plate?

what could happen by over tightening the clutch pressure plate? I did not have a tourqe wrench available for this part. So I just tightened them till the fingers went in all the way.(blipped the electric impact gun) 19lbs isnt too tight. Im guessing I may be around 25 or 30 ish lbs.

Good or Bad

Worst is you'll break the bolt. Just tighten till they are pretty snug, you don't want them backing out. And you won't strip the flywheel. I think the correct torque spec is "#2 on the impact gun"
