Default Torqueing Question
When doing the lower rear ARP nuts, I used a swivel, and while torqueing the head of the torque wrench was against the firewall.

Would this affect the actual torque applied to the nut?

Insignificant compared to 81 ft pounds!

In theory, yes. But as No Doubt said, it would be insignificant

That's what I figured. It certainly wasn't easy.
