 Re: Exhaust manifold studs
Aw shweet, thanks. I'll see how I go first, I fancy giving it a go. Bloody threads seem to be the bane of my life sometimes, high time I learned how to sort them out.

 Re: Exhaust manifold studs
I think I'm going to helicoil the studs so they stay the same size. What depth of helicoil would be suitable please guys? I hadn't thought abut this before but just saw this kit on ebay and realised they would be too short wouldn't they. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brand-New-25- ... 2ed1df6b66
