Are they just guides for installing the new manifold. They are threaded but do not protrude foar enough to get nuts on after the manifold is installed. i was looking for a torquing pattern for the manifold bolts. Thanks

I think that people have reported that they have removed the Chevrolet end studs and replaced them with threaded boots. I do not remember if the Chevrolet end/alignment studs were originally press-fit or threaded? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2019 Posts: 123 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2019 Posts: 123 | Mine are not in bad shape i just wondered if there are suppose to be nuts on them. sounds like they are just alignment.
