Torque specs on exhaust manifold nuts????
100 to 120 ich lbs is only about 10 ft lbs i believe. This seems like not alot of torque to hold these nuts on securely. Checking all my nuts and bolts today and came across this. any feed back appreciated

yup.
these studs get pretty brittle with heat and when broken require the head removed to fix.
antiseize paste on the threads is smart.
the evo and TC exhaust use a gasket and ring/collar that help make a seal with lesser clamping force
