More than high temp paint, high temp clearcoat and a couple of hours sanding and painting would cost =]

You will strip the studs for sure at that torque. We stripped two doing 10 ft*lbs because we didn't have a torque wrench that went down to 8.7 ft*lbs. Needless to say, I went to Sears that afternoon.
