Question Torque on the flywheel nut

I’m looking into buying a torque wrench. On a GSL-SE 13B engine, what is the torque on the flywheel nut?

Thank you,

Luism12lm

you might want to run a search for the exact figure or download the FSM, but it's somewhere on the order of about 300 ft-lbs.

How about the torque on the eccentric shaft nut?

According to the “Haynes” RX-7 1979 to 1985 book page 45, it takes from 72 to 87 ft-lb (10 to12 m-kg).

Thank you
