Default Torque specs???
Anyone know of a good online torque spec listing? I was looking at the JBA shorty install instructions and there is no torque value listed for the header bolts. I've ran into this a lot, just wondering if there was a good source I could bookmark.

If your going to do your own repairs you really should invest in a factory manual.

Tighten header bolts initially about 20 -25 lbs. drive it and next morning tighten to 30lbs.
