As far as the the thin nut not being able to take the torque, it is fine for that. The torque spec for a 8.8 20mm is 210 ft-lbs (285 N-m), and that's the lowest I found. And its the first three threads that take 90% of the clamp force.

when I got my pump back from seth 3 years ago that 175 torque was what he recommended. Good to know the max she will hold. Thanks.
