Default Cosworth hub nut torque and nut size

Guys,

I'm refitting bearings to all 4 hubs today, 2wd Cossie. Is the hub nut 41mm from memory? And what torque do I need to do them to?

Cheers

Well all done except one rear hub as the wheel bearing kit didn't have a hub nut, and had completely wrong dust seals
