I have been off work the last week with back surgery,Hayes Manual and others are at work. My son is going to install my brand New Bursch Exhaust system for me. I need the torque setting for the connection Between the system and the Heat Exchangers. Thanks in advance Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) |

between the ends of the heat exchangers and the muffler? doesn't seem like a critical torque value to me ('course i've been wrong many times before, just ask the Cap'n (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) ). torque on heat exchanger to head is 18 ft lbs so that would seem like an acceptable value for HE->muffler. bolts are probably 8mm? Cap'n said somewhere that 8mm typical torque is 20ish ft lb.

Thanks Mark for inquireing. To day is the first since last WEd. and a yr. before that. NO DOPE, it feels great to be off that. Still a little post Opp. Pain nothing like before. I am going to try to go to work Tommrow, will have some Vicodin with me ,( just in case). Modern medicine really is great. I would have bet that i wouldn't be feeling this good by Thanksgiving. ATTENTION Dr. EVIL, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Give concideration to Orthopedics Surgery!!!!!

Ortho is the way to go!
The best tools, stainless steel, titanium, cobalt chrome AND someone else cleans up! Before I did ortho, I was always happiest working on my cars. Best of luck with your back! Paul |

Thats good to hear, Dave. I used to work for a company that made a few of the components for Kyphon's delivery systems. Pretty neat stuff.

My son installed the new bursh exhaust system for me today. We took the 914 for 1/ 2 hr ride. I never felt a single bump, pre opp. i wasn,t unusual to wince at a few. The people who invented the Kypon's procidure are amazing people to me. Dave |

That's good to hear. I have a 914 running now, so once I get it tuned up, I am planning to be at any fall gatherings in a 914 instead of a Pontiac.
