MY FAULT, MY FAULT, I appologise I set the Torgue wrench incorrectly it was in KGS!!!
So I converted the 20NM to 15ftlbs and redid the inlet manifold torqued down and they are now OK, except I will need to get a new bolt tomorrow and HOPE that the threads are OK and the new bolt will torque down OK.
So SORRY to have been such an alarmist, but you know how it feels when things go wrong!!

Please remember that almost every torque wrench is accompanied
by instructions that specify the usable range of the wrench is
between the bottom 20 percent and the top 20 percent of the
nominal range.
A 250 ft/lb 1/2 inch torque drive wrench would not be suitable for the fasteners
being discussed.

Well I have mine in and all buttoned down. Fired right up. No leaks that I can tell. I had a check engine light when I shut it down to do the repairs, weeks later with batt undone, fired it right up and light back on. Still runs fine but will check that later. The black airbox intake tube from air box to TB, in the accordion area has small holes, maybe air reading are a bit off??@!?!?!?!?!?
