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 |

Won't plain M6x1.0 (thread) in an appropriate length work fine? You should be able to get that from a good large hardware store, or at least a big auto parts place. Failing that, Caterpillar Tractor carries lots of metric stuff...
No, I don't know what the appropriate length is; if you have stock studs measure them and add however much more length you think you need. --DD |
