Message for exhaust components.

There are a number of different alloys that are used for exhaust fasteners, Pyromet, NCF, to name a couple. I dont think 316 is used much at all in the industry for this application. I used these as they were locally available through Fastenal and from my experience with this alloy in other high temperature applications I believe it will work out just fine. I'll report back on this in a couple of years to see if it was a good choice or not. :)
