Flywheel installation and the counterweight

I'm going to have my flywheel installed next week. I am using a local shop that does Jap imports. I was wondering if there are any special instructions about installing and aligning the counterweight?

The counterweight has a key configuration, so it fits on the engine shaft one way only. This allows the proper balance needed.

The shop will need to properly torque the counterweight onto the flywheel.

I'd rely on the manufacturer to provide that. It could differ based upon the what material the flywheel is made from.
