Doug,
   Torque it to 70# and don't forget the lock tab.  You can use the lock tab
as a washer and not bend the tab up (it's very difficult with the engine in
the car) and use red Locktite.

I've had an oil leak on the front of my 948 for a couple years now and it is
getting worse.  Going to the 50th so I guess I better fix it.  I don't think
it
is the pan or the timing cover gaskets.  I think it is that cheesy felt
seal in
the timing cover for the crank.  I have the felt seal to replace it.
The
service manual says I can remove the radiator and do the job without
having to
raise the engine.  My question is, what is the torque for the crank
pulley
bolt?  Also, if anyone has any helpful hints, I am open to them.
