Here's why:
* Engine Year and Model: Torque specs vary significantly depending on the specific year, model, and engine configuration of the Dodge 360.
* Manifold Type: Different exhaust manifolds have different bolt sizes and materials.
* Manufacturer: The torque spec might differ slightly depending on the manufacturer of the exhaust manifold.
How to Find the Correct Torque Spec:
1. Consult Your Owner's Manual: Your owner's manual should include the correct torque specs for your specific vehicle.
2. Factory Service Manual: A factory service manual for your Dodge 360 will have the most accurate information.
3. Reputable Automotive Repair Manuals: Look for reliable repair manuals like Chilton's or Haynes.
4. Dodge Dealer or Mechanic: Contact a Dodge dealership or a reputable automotive repair shop.
Important Note: Always use a torque wrench when tightening exhaust manifold bolts to prevent over-tightening, which can damage the manifold or cylinder head.
