So the consensus is 217 Ft. Lbs. is NOT enough. I will submit that 250 isn't enough either. I like Al's 280-300 setting. A nice round number and a lot more than factory(which was only to hold 60 hp!).

As I said before, I've never stripped a hub. I do know that it is an often-checked item on the Formula Vee cars. Most guys use a hitch pin in the cotter pin hole. If it goes in easy, but comes out hard, you KNOW it's starting to back off. They recommend 250-300, the factory spec of 217 is NOT ENOUGH! And that's for 60 hp on a good day, but with slicks on a track pulling high G-loads.
