The fastener itself may be capable of that torque value however that might be overkill for the intended application, I would follow the torque spec provided by the damper Mfgr or else use OEM specified torque. Don't break the snout or you'll REALLY be pissed! 189 Ft lbs seems like way too much to secure the damper.
Thank you Rick-I thought I'd have to show St Patrick the holes in my hands...

More amazing is that the same fastener without ARP lube takes 243!

IIRC the castle nut on the Jag rear requires 180 lbft. I quit at 150.
