When I had the dealership tighten my manifold bolts, they were loose only a few months later. If they are loose and you don't want to deal with the muffler shop, get some locktite and torque them to spec. I would intially take it back though - and have them fix it.   david bullard (Quadcustoms) New Member Username: Quadcustoms Post Number: 6 Registered: 01-2004 Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2004 - 04:27 pm:    THANKS GUYS,DAVID
