Exhaust bolts, muffler to cylinder, locktite?

The aircraft nuts are a pinch thread nut. Fastenal should also carry them

if you think Harley bolts are expensive....wait till you pay for anything that says "Beechcraft" or "Cessna" on it...( each part has a PN stamped on it and a 20 yr product liability suit just waiting for its failure call up)

Anything for an aircraft is expensive .

Loctite? Yeah I use it. Low strength for saws... It's only to 300* but it still has a "grip" when i take out muffler bolts...

Have you any idea if the aircraft bolts cost more than the cylinder ??? just because i cant decide what to buy the bolts or the cylinder

can't use the cylinder without the bolts...But you can use the bolts without the cyl .....

Now that's something to ponder .At one time McCulloch motors made engines used in ultra lights .Would those need FAA approval ? If I'm not mistaken Franklin who I think made engine for the early Piper cubs was essentially a Ford Model A .But the parts had to be approved for use in same at about quadruple or more the price .

Now this I do know from my tractor pulling days are spark plugs .I had the hottest heat range 18 mm plug I could find for a John-Deere model A at 4 bucks a pop .The next up was aircraft at 19 bucks a pop .
