retorque manifolds after warm up?
Is it necessary to re torque the exhaust manifold nuts after warm up?

Yes let the engine warm up for a while then re-torque after it cools down.

Ok cool. I thought you only had to do that on headers for some reason.

Yeah I think a warm up, cool down and re-torque wouldn't hurt. Not sure if it has to done, but it wouldn't hurt anything.
