Default Flywheel bolt torque

A friend was installing his flywheel and he torqued the bolts to 65 lb/ft per Les Andrews "Red" Book. He pulled the threads on two of the holes.

Upon further looking, the "Red" Book says 65 lb/ft in one place and 55 lb/ft in another. Bratton's catalog says 55 lb/ft.

I have never seen this happen before. Does anyone have a suggestion on a fix and correct torque spec?
