If I were to put a 27mm socket on the crank bolt and rotate it with a Dial gauge torque wrench, what range should my readings fall within? I know initial torque will be high but rotating torque should be what?
From my skimming the FSM, I did not see anything like this. From Sr20forum or somewhere, I read it should be between 10-18 ft-lb (I'm going to assume this means a long block with spark plugs removed).
Thoughts?

Grab the balancer with both hands, put your shoulder into it, and it should turn.
