4kq exhaust bolts

[Huw Powell]

a fistful of 8 by 40/45 mm bolts should get you home.  longer is fine
except for at the cat where clearance may be an issue.  sorry I can't
remember if they are 40 or 45.

I am not impressed by s/s "split" style lock washers on exhausts, see if
you can get lock nuts, the kind that are "crimped", not the nylocks
(they really won't work on exhaust!)

use those with regular washers (it's nice, if you get say 45 or 50 mm
bolts, to have extra washers in case you need to eat up a few mm)

3 per joint, so you need about 9 sets.
