On the block at either end of the exhaust and Intake ports are acouple studs sticking out. When the headers are placed the studs go into the hole but don't have any threads sticking out...and I can't remember if the stock exhaust had a nut on there. Or are the studs just for alignment ?
Thanks

Carb can be installed on the manifold before or after, might be easier to hadle the manifold with it off, though.
