Michael,
originally castellated nuts were used. Tighten as good as you can and turn back to nearest slot.

The last engine I rebuilt that had castellated main/rod fasteners I torqued to specified torque, noted the offset between slot and hole then filed the back of the nut (non-castellated side) just a 'tad' ..retorqued to setting until the slots/hole lined up at the right torque ...course that was on a Model T but ...
