I'm installing a shiny new muffler on my shiny new firebolt('05). Can someone tell me what to torque the rear muffler straps to?
Ordered a service manual but can't wait to get this race "kit" installed!

The manual says:

a. Install rear muffler straps and alternately tighten rear strap fasteners to 48-60 inch lbs.

b. install new front muffler strap and fastener and tighten to 108-120 inch lbs.

c. tighten torca clamp to 40-45 ft lbs.

Please note those are inch pounds, not foot pounds!
