#193407 dj1duke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 82 NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   I REPLACED MY EXHAUST SOME TIME BACK WITH THE FREEDOM EXHAUST TRUE DUALS, HOWEVER I NEVER REPLACED THE EXHAUST GASKETS FROM THE BLOCK AND MY LEFT EXHAUST HAS BEEN MAKING A HORRIBLE POPPING SOUND ON DECELERATION. I JUST BOUGHT NEW GASKETS, I WILL TRY TO THROW THEM ON ANY BODY KNOW THE TORQ SETTINGS THEY NEED TO BE ON? OR ANY OTHER USEFUL ADVICE BEFORE I START?

Not positive though I just use my wrench and get em tight. After you put them on and get them tight go for a ride and get the pipes good and hot. Then come back and let it cool down and re-tighten them.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/08 14:59 By Musky.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193440 dj1duke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 82 Re:NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   Thanks will be it a shot!   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193467 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   If you are talking about the stud bolts that bolt the header pipe to the "Head", my book says 11 Ft. Lbs. 14 Ft. Lbs is for the exhaust pipe nuts, wherever those are. BTW, the engine block is the lower end (Crankcase).   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/08 18:35 By Road_Hawg.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193481 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   Road_Hawg wrote: If you are talking about the stud bolts that bolt the header pipe to the "Head", my book says 11 Ft.

The pipe nuts are what is screwed onto the studs to hold the pipes on. I'm pretty sure anyway. .   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #193484 dj1duke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 82 Re:NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   Thanks for the illustration Musky. Will Try 14lbs   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193487 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:NEED SOME HELP WITH EXHAUST! 3 Years ago   I found the illustration. The stud bolts must be the studs that screw into the head. Sorry for the confusion. I hate it when I mess things up.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/08 20:18 By Road_Hawg.     The administrator has disabled public write access.
