If no one has a more definitive answer, this is what I'm going with. My exhaust pipe nuts in the cylinder head were very loose (???), so I need to keep an eye on this. But that could be 20 years without retorqueing. So I'll do an outside-in top-down crisscross pattern :-) 180-in-lbs On Saturday, April 5, 2014 6:34:05 PM UTC-7, Phil wrote: > > The studs on the Nighthawk 750 (1993) are at -45 degrees and 135 degrees. > What is a criss-cross pattern with these studs? > Outside, inside?
