Not alot going on. To start the test, I set the torque wrench to 60mn it's lowest setting and used a regular non carbon steel bolt as a starting point but the thread pulled before 60 so I've ordered a much smaller wrench....

Also soon I will order some material for my rear exhaust box that I plan to rivet and braze. When I get time....

Also the last bolt is threaded rod, I read once it's stronger than cut bolts because the rod is rolled, but who knows until I break it...

And the material I'm ordering is aerospace stuff unusual for exhausts....
