    Torque for exhaust clamps to motor

    I found a page with all the torque settings but the one I am missing is the clamps for my four pipes into engine, just replaced my exhaust gaskets and need to torque them down now,...
    Thanks

    Header nuts get torqued to 14.5 ft/lb, I would put a few drops of oil on the studs before tightening.

          Check again after heat cycles, I found mine needed to be snugged up a few times.
