    Depends on the hub kit you are using. Typically 55 ft-lbs but there are hub kits (some of the newer ones) that require 100. If it is a 97 prop/ hub, then 55 would be the number.

    Yep, 55 if its the normal flo-torq hub. 100 if you are using a forward (cone) bushing with it OR if it is the metal fat shaft style.

    I prefer to use the forward bushing whenever possible

    A48 Tempest Plus and Fury are the same - 100 ft lbs with the forward bushing and the Flo Torq II hub kit.
