Not sure but you might want to post your question on the Monte Carlo Repair Help in Genderal Forums. Good luck though!

They should only be torqued to 50ft/lb + 120degrees

Evening everyone, still loving the new exhaust

Took the mother in law to the hospital yesterday so she could get the surgery done on her elbow and get it replaced, all went well but had to kill time all day in city, so checked out a couple challenger's and went to a music store. Found a nice little 1 watt tube amp made by Blackstar and the little thing rocks, almost whipped out the debit card, but then I thought "Ken, could I use this on stage?" and I answered with "Ken, no it's not gonna be anywhere near loud enough, don't be foolish and grab the shiny brass ring" lol, it would be nice for my basement, but I also already own 7 amps so I don't really need it, but it did impress me.

Other than that, been busy catching up at work and did an in service tonight for some of the work crew which went well

I hope everyone enjoyed their day
