5`1 F1 front damper torque spec

I found torque specs for the R engine on page 375 of my service manual, but nothing is listed for the R Engine. Anyone know what the correct spec is or is it just the old German spec.

Tight enough to stay on, not ultra critical. 50-60 ft-lbs should do it. I use some antiseize on it because they can be a bear to break loose after a couple years. It really isn't a damper on the V8s, just a sheave.
