header bolt torque specs?
i have arp exhaust studs and am getting ready to throw the stock header back on and was wondering what the CORRECT torque specs for the header bolts are for an OEM application. please, any advice possible would be greatly appreciated! thank you!

Don't know off the top of my head, but you'll be hard pressed to torque all of them with a torque wrench without a torque extension. I THINK they are 17 ft/lbs, but I've always gone by feel.

In my Honda manual, 23 lb-ft is the recommendation.
You can reach all of them from the top if you have a 1/4" 12mm deep socket with short 1/4" extension. Getting a 3/8" adapter and torque wrench on that is gonna be tricky due to clearance issues, though. |
remember to torque them in 2-3 steps, with the final setting 23 ft lbs and torque from center bolt outwards alterating on both sides to evenly clamp it down.
