Negative Ghostrider Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 I'm putting new studs in the block for the manifolds and I can't seem to find torque specs or installation instructions anywhere. Just gonna double nut them and put them in dry unless otherwise advised. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 In the head. Go easy as they are soft aluminum. Carefully run a tap down the hols to clean them first. I would only turn them down till they bottom. When you tighten the nut they'll tighten more if they need to. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 A little anti-seize wont hurt either.... Also make sure you have those cupped washers for the studs that are shared clamping both the intake and exhaust... Quote Link to comment

Negative Ghostrider Posted September 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Of course the new gasket is bumping into the thermostat and making things hard to line up. Always something. Quote Link to comment
