Restoration: Where to get manifold stud kit

Hey thirdgen'ers.

I have been looking for years for this particular thing with no success....

I know you can get the stud kits to put the Y-pipe back up on the manifolds, but does anyone know of any place to get the bolt/stud kit to put the manifolds back on to the heads?

When doing a restoration, it would be nice to have the correct studs/bolts to put back in to the manifolds so the accessories can be mounted back up...

Thanks.

Re: Restoration: Where to get manifold stud kit

you will play hell doing it BUT if you have a bolt and screw store nearby AND you have a FSM for your car you can deduce where what goes and buy accordingly...let me guess.someone installed headers?? and now you want it to not have exh. leaks?? and now it falls to you to put things right. I see that almost everyday. good luck. and I would buy grade 8 hardware
