Greetings list.
A question on the studs for exhaust manifold. I was going to start the
great manifold transplant next week.
I looking in TM 0-8030 manual it list the stud sizes required as:

3/8-16NC (9/16) x 3/8-24NF (13/16) x 13/16 Heat Treated studs (Grade 8
that is) =

This sequence of measurement has perplexed a major supplier of studs bolt=
s
etc.. The McMaster-Carr company is not sure what these are. As I have no=
t
taken them off neither am I. It was my wish to put on new after going to=

all the effort of taking the beast apart. One MV vendor suggested the "L=
"
with studs just use grade 8 bolts as these are not muscle cars and no one=

is showing off a chromed set of heads anyway.

I kind of touched on this in a previous email but thanks in advance for
your commentary.
