Crank Pulley Bolt Torque Setting?

I am about to change my timing belt, but I don't know the appropriate torque setting for my crank pulley bolt. My Helm's manual says 14ft-lb's... that seems way to low. I have a D16Y8 and the instructions in the manual for the B16 state 170ft-lb's. Online for CRX Si's I saw 120ft-lb's. Where should I tighten this to? Please help.

Thank you in advance.

re-read the helm's manual. I'm pretty sure you'll find that it says "14 ft-lbs plus 90 degrees." That's a torque-to-strain spec, and generally more accurate than a normal torque spec.

I see now... Wow... confusing.. How come the B16 doesn't require the same precision?
