Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

I've always thought the type/diameter of the fastener dictates its torque-value, not the material it's clamping.

Many fastener torque charts have this warning "Reduce torque by 30% when threading into aluminum, unless inserts are used." Don't know if the Mopar casting has thread inserts or not.
