Had to remove the last section of tail pipe and ready to reinstall. Flange bolts are 10mm x 1.75. Thinking 50 - 55 lbs. Any one know? Anti seize on threads? Thinking leave them clean. Thanks, Jim

There is a mark on the bolt head that indicates the strength of the bolt. There is a chart in the service manual that relates bolt strength and size to install torque. Flange bolts have a different value than bolts with washers, so look for that.
