I can't tell you if your exhaust nuts are good or not,
but here's what I did to keep mine tight. Years ago
there was some discussion about safety-wiring the old
nut so that they don't loosen up. Someone chimed in
that he had used small springs instead of ssafety
wire, which has the advantage of easy removal (when
needed) and reuseability. I gave it a try and it works
great. Drill a small hole in each nut, and a small
hole in a cooling fin on each cylinder in the opposite
direction from which the nut must turn inorder to
loosen, and then put a spring between the two. Works
great.
