I replaced the exhaust rear manifold stud with a 7/16th threaded stud purchased from moyer.
Also I drilled a 7/16 to bore the original hole larger through the manifold to replace the stud without removing the manifold, very very very long story short mission accomplished.
The new stud is in as solid as can be, the engine runs great but... there is a very small amount of water dripping from where the nut is on the new stud.
Is this because I drilled the hole on the manifold a bit larger?
any ideas.
