I am looking for longer intake manifold studs.
If I use one of the thick intake gaskets, my current studs are not quite long enough to bolt on my carbs. Where can I find longer ones? I did not see them at Raby's or PP, and trying to search at AA right now is neigh impossible. My search is hampered as I don't actually know the dimensions of the stock studs. I guess the simpler solution would be to buy another set of thin intake gaskets. But I have a new set of the thick ones, and I understand that they are better to use. And, yes, I am aware that I am asking noob-tastic questions this evening. Zach |

I just got a set of 8 from Jake and they are exactly the same length as the studs I removed. And mine are too short also when using the stock gasket with the spacer.
So please let me know where you find a set. I'll be placing another order with Jake next week and I plan to ask then what he suggests I use for a gasket. I need new ones anyway and since he sold me a set the same length as what I believe are stock studs, I'm going to bet that he doesn't use a stock spaced gasket with carbs. We'll see... |
