Re: Red motor puzzle

I've always had bolts at the end with extractors. Dowels with cast manifolds. May pay to try and run 3/8"UNF die up the studs, even if you end up using the welder. I could only get replacement studs with both end UNC. Exhaust flange studs are an alternative I've heard of but know zip about. May...
