Need Flywheel & clutch torque settings 700

Replacing clutch & tranny on my 88 740 turbo.

Haynes manual calls for flywheel bolts to be torqued to 51 ft-lb.
I was successfull with tightening all 7 bolts except one which sheared.
Now, I'm concerned that I the Haynes manual was wrong and I may have overtorqued the others.
Can someone respond with the proper torque setting?

By the way, I replaced the broken bolt with another type that fit and to make things even, I replaced one of the original bolts with the new type directly opposite to acheive balance.(so I think).

Also, the Haynes manual omits the torque settings for the clutch plate bolts (allen head type). Picked up new ones at Volvo dealer.
Can someone please post the correct torque settings for these bolts also.

Thank you to all that respond.
