Hi All –
Getting ready to order new exhaust studs for the 6 conversion. I need to measure the flanges on my headers, then make the call. Anything to stay away from in terms of stock vs stainless, etc etc etc? Aren’t they just M8-1.25’s? I know even my local Ace Harware had them in various lengths – but I don’t know what they were made of. Thanks!!! Scott S (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Most damage is done removing rusty nuts. The old chevy fix was to use brass nuts on good studs orrrr use a nickle high temp anti-sieze on steel nuts and a torque wrench on lubricated nuts.
