header removal question PLZ HELP
Had a day off today so got to play with the bike. Put in Engine Ice coolant and started to put on exhaust wrap on the headers... I decided as a last resort to take off the headers/exhaust and was insanely suprised how easy the header bolts came off... I barely had to use a socket driver, 1/4 turn and then they came off by hand... Is it normal for them to be this easy to get off? I thought they would be horrendous to get off like any other car header (1G dsm and a jeep cherokee)
I looked in my service manual and I think I found that they should be torqued at 33 lbs. Can anyone confirm this (my manual kinda sucks) After some thought I wanted to double check if this is the right rating because I know the block is aluminum and I don't wanna over torque the nuts and mess up my block. As always thanks for the help guys... |

Might be 33 inch lbs but double check. I don't have my manual here or I'd tell you for sure.

RE: header removal question PLZ HELP
My bike is an 03 and I had never had the headers off until a year ago. I thought the nuts would be rusted and terrible to get off too. They came off with a simple box wrench. So I'd say 33lbs too.
