Rod Bolt Torque 1800

The Haynes manual says to torque rod bolts to 33 ft lbs. in the paragraph reading but in the torque specs column it has 38-42. What is the correct torque?

    Rod Bolt Torque 1800

    The Volvo green manual for B20 1972 says 38-42.
    Put spacers between the big end side faces and crank throws so the rod doesn't twist while
    you are tightening the nuts.
