Studs or bolts for exhaust manifolds?
I should get my APS kit tomorrow from FedEx, and one thing that is missing is the (11) 8mm x 1.25 x 1.0 x 25 and the one shorter 8 x 1.25 x 1.0 x 23.5mm (for dipstick clearance) studs to hold the manifolds on.
My question is this, should I spend time finding those studs or will regular bolts hold just fine?
I'm lookin to make in the neighborhood of 600-650rwhp so nothing crazy..
Thanks guys!
