The torque spec is 270-330 NM or 199-244 Ft lbs. I've used this trick to hold the flywheel down, I've had an assistant hold a deep socket 13mm with an extension on a torque converter bolt thru the bellhousing window. Turn the motor (clockwise) until it wedges the socket and holds the motor. Then torque it down.

Warning the risks are the 13mm socket getting stuck. So do it at own risk.
