    The Sem flywheel is 50Nm (37 ft. lbs.) and the Motoplat is 70Nm (50 Ft. lbs). I've never seen the torque spec documentation for a Husky primary gear but seeing its bigger than the flywheel and is the main transfer of hp I would go higher than the flywheel recommendation.

    If you want confirmation ask a couple of reputable vintage Husky restorers like Vintage Husky, or PM George at Up-tite.
