With drum brake CVs it's 60lb/ft then align to the next pin hole.
With disc brake CVs (Cooper S onwards) it's 150lb/ft then align to the next pin hole.

If the (Disc type) CV has two holes through it as the Doc says^ but if it has one hole and a course thread for the split pin it's actually 193 ft/lbs and then to the next hole.
