While I agree that the risk of torqueing to factory spec. is low, I don't agree with your comment that strength of steel has nothing to do with it. Try to do it with mild steel... I thought that I could get away with it just for initial tryout of the engine. They failed within 2 hours.

Thanks for the advice to go ahead though. I will do just that.
