It looks like the normal torque for a cap screw that size is 35 or 49 foot
pounds, depending on the class. I wonder how I can lock the crankshaft to
get the screw loose.

Remove the spark plug and with the piston at a low point, shove a piece of
rope in the spark plug hole. As the piston comes up the rope will stop the
piston. Be sure to leave about 6 inches of rope sticking out of the hole so
you can pull it all back out once you are done.
