Book says 55 ft lbs of torque on that engine. I usually go around 45-50 on mine. (1991 200 hp Merc) Make sure you Never-seez the shaft before you reassemble. 
Safety tip for anyone... when you work on a prop, MAKE SURE that the key is in the off position, the positive wire to the battery is disconnected and the spark plug leads are disconnected at the engine. 2 cycle engines can start very easily and lots of people have gotten very nasty injuries because the engine kicked while they were working on the prop.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
