Default Actual Torque #'s for prop nut.

I know tighten till tight thing but was curious what Merc says for torque number on the Bravo X and One drives...

Does having a prop lock change it and if so what's the number for that?

I was just reading that in the manual last week. It is 55 ft-lbs and there is a footnote saying that this is the MINIMUM torque value. So basically tighten to 55 ft-lbs and tighten what-ever more you have to for aligning the locking tabs to the grooves.
