p7100 gear nut torque?

out driving a truck, put the hammer down, and slipped the timing. Going to re-time tomorrow, but I'm wondering has anybody got a torque spec on those nuts if the truck is going to be a 400-450hp truck?

More important is gear and pump shaft must be cleaned of any oil before tightening or gear will slip again. Tighten gear nut to 122 ft. lbs.

It will be spic and span for sure. As for the spec, I was reading the papers with the gauge for setting the timing, and it actually says to torque @ 165ftlbs.
