What are the torque specs for my ZX-14r headers, Got them in from the coaters and ready to install them. Tried to do a search and can't seem to find those specs in Owners Manual.

8mm stud = 10 to 13.5ftlbs. And 10 is too much against a gasket remember. This is not a solid flat surface metal to flat metal torque spec. More of being experienced with hardware or know when tight is tight. Crush a new gasket, not flatten it. 10 foot won't even be close to the final crush. Get it?
Hand tighten.
