Default Torque spec on header bolts?

Anyone know what the torque spec is on the GenIII headers. I am supposed to do a second tightening on the bolts after a few hundred miles (I have belangers). I am going to do that this week and I don't know the ft.lbs. on it? Thanks in advance

You didn't use the grey fiber gaskets did you? If those come with Gen 3 Belangers.

I bought my headers (Gen 2) in Dec last year and his "latest" gaskets were the grey fiber that everyone knows not to use. I bought a set of OE metal ones.

Not "Everyone". I have put 300+ miles on whatever mine are without a prob. I will certinly keep an eye one them and replace if I even begin to suspect a leak. Thanks for the heads up!

Re-torquing will prolong the life of fiber gaskets so keep that up if that is your case. You may even get lucky and have no issues. That would certainly be the exception though.
