The long bolt thru the assembly doesn't need super torque. There's a steel insert in the rubber biscuits to resist crushing from overtorque, but the long bolt only keeps the assembly from separating over big bumps etc. The rest of the time, the weight of the engine holds the assembly in place. And that bolt is drilled for a cotter pin and uses an elastic lock-nut. Biggest danger is losing the bolt if it's installed from the bottom, hence the cotter-pin hole. That and breaking the small bolts going into the block thru the aluminum upper
mount.
