MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Conrod bolt torque

Hi chaps
Does anyone know the correct torque for the nuts on the Conrod bolts. The engine is a 1275 from a marina (which I think has larger big ends then the midget engine.
(The Haynes manual for the metro a+ 1275 says 33 ftlbs dry)
Cheers

T Dafforn

The BL w/shop manual for Marina says 35ft/lb
