torque spec for Alta classic 19% pulley

I installed mine and for some reason the 4 bolts that hold the pully on seemed to start loosening. I used red loctite and they still came a little loose.

Anyone got a torque spec for these 4 bolts that hold the pulley on?

Usually if the threads are good and clean, red loctite will hold like its welded. Even if you just used the blue it shouldn't loosen. I'd carefully check both the male and female threads.

When we did a group pulley install, we laughed our asses off at that.

We explained those hilarious torque values away by saying that it's a Mini: everything is in tiny values.
