Yeah I will say torque to yield is probably one of the scariest torque specs. I've helped rebuild a variety of John Deere motors in the past ranging from 12.5 liters in pre 1990s models to 16 liters in the more modern ones. And on the first 16 liter I did I was terrified because the bolts are about 14 inches long and torque to 275ft pounds and 4 sets of 90 degrees after.
