Default 2WD exhaust manifold to trouser leg studs and nuts???

Does anyone know where I can get hold of some?

I've tried Matt Lewis, Graham Goode etc.... Just seems like nobody does them anymore?

Failing that, what alternative should I use?

Cheers Billy

Do they have to be specific ?

I think I went to my local "Nut & Bolt" supplier last time I needed to fasten the two together

Although that was a few years ago now
