Front Pulley Hub nut torque setting

Can someone let me know the torque setting for the front Pulley hub nut ona 20B please? I presume it is higher than the bolt torque shown in the 13B manual?
Do you just torque the long and short bolts up to the same spec as the 13B or has someone got official settings and order for these as well please.
I guess all other specs are same as 13B? I can't think of any other fixings that are specific to the 20b?

Thank you
Lee

Front nut is 313-353NM. Long and short bolts are the same torque. torque sequence is pretty much the same as 13b but you will have to juggle front end and rear a little bit.

I don't have a flywheel locking tool so I was planning to put the nut on the counterweight end and use a socket and breaker bar to prevent the engine turning while I torque the front nut. Then tighten the counterweight nut up with a windy gun good and tight. Sound like a good plan?
cheers

Timing is off. You need to confirm TDC location. Like I've told you in PMs, I would stick the stock trigger wheel back on the crank and use it to check the reference mark on the FFE wheel. The mark on the OE wheel is 15 ATDC, the FFE wheel has a mark at TDC. So they're not the same but will give you a reference. You can also transfer the 15 ATDC mark to the FFE wheel and lock the timing at -15 to confirm timing synch. Bottom line, the symptom you have indicate the timing is off and your TDC offset angle is one no one else is using. Sounds like that's where your issue is.

Wrong thread I think... But I will remember to check my marks while my engine is apart!

now is the time to do it. Before putting it together, make sure the timing is dead on. I personally used racing beat pulley and front cover marker. FFE makes good stuff too!

Already done! Sat pulley and hub in front cover. Set keyway to 90 degrees to the left and my marks on my FD trigger wheel are spot on. At least that verifies my other methods' worked. Peace if mind!
