ok, saw a post on anti seizing exhaust bolts...can't find it now, have the plastic off the sled....are we talking about the torx bolts on the muffler exhaust flange? The ones holding the muffler on the turbo? Also I see 2 that won't accept my 50mm torx....what's the preferred wrench for those? Thanks

I bought a Torx bit and basically ground off the back until it fit. Then turned it with a 1/4" wrench. Make sense

Dismantle a 50 Torx and use a 5/16 wrench to hold the bit...that F up must've been Yami's contribution...lol

Yes makes sense...so, the anti sieze post I saw, wasn't the exhaust bolts to the head? Those look like they would be tuff to get to.

Just the six Torx bolts on exhaust flange. I used nickel grade 2600° anti seize

Only could find Copper anti seize locally 1800-2000°. Hope it's enough, I think anything is better than nothing. I replaced torx head bolts with standard head bolts so I didn't have to use that contraption in the pic again....lol

Curved jaw vice grip works fine for removal also........lol
Replace with hex bolts, or a different exhaust that does not block them.
