Couldn't torque a few on my Mopars as they are behind the tubes,they were a right P.I.T.A.
I've still got scabs on my knuckles

Yea, after I got the headers on I also realized only 6 of them were reachable with the torque wrench, so I tightened "enough". Will retighten this winter during hibernation.
