5288 exhaust manifold studs

Posted by Chuck on September 14, 2002 at 18:54:08 from (24.149.29.142):

A stud broke on my 5288MFD exhaust manifold so I decided it would be a good time to fix it before harvest. I tried to be carefull removing the rest but then had 5 broken studs instead of one. I have one broken stud left to remove. Instead of using studs a cap screw is now the replacement from CaseIH. After running a tap in the hole the bolt fits very tight. What is going to happen next time the manifold has to be removed? Even if I coat the threads with anti seize I am afaid the bolts will twist off. I am tempted to find some good quality studs and forget the bolts. What to people think?
