Went to do the final torquing of my exhaust system and noticed that I have a stainless lock washer under the stainless nut on the stud of the exhaust ports, but no flat washer . Normally, lock washers are used over a regular flat washer. However, my initial install did not have them, leading me to believe that I must have had a reason for omitting them, but I can't find anything in my documentation from Vetterman about the washer combination that should be used on the studs. The only thing I seem to vaguely remember is that the studs, as they came from Aerosport Power, are not really long enough to get an additional flat washer in there. Perhaps that's why I left one off. Should I have a stainless flat washer under the lock washer or does this particular installation allow for only the lock washer?
