[Vwdiesel] timing belt crank pulley torque

I am installing the timing belt crank pulley on a 1.6 td.  It is the 
crank style that has a notch in the end of the crank and a nub cast into 
the pulley as a key.  Two questions.  is this a JK or CY engine?  The 
engine has a hydraulic head and my Bentley doesn't cover the hydraulic 
head engines and I want to make sure the torque of 148 ft lbs with lubed 
threads is correct (14 mm bolt).  Is there a different procedure than 
what is in the Bentley manual?  I remember there has been some 
discussion about this style of pulley coming loose and ruining a 
perfectly good crank.
