cvh turbo manifold studs
Can anyone tell me if these are different to inlet manifold studs.
Ford supplied me with the same studs for inlet and exhaust manifold but the first manifold stud i tried to torque up suddenly went very loose and i managed to twist the stud in half.
I had no problems with the inlet studs using copper nuts but the exhaust nuts look like a stronger metal.
Could this just be a naff stud?
Any help or advice would be great.
Cheers

hhhm no luck in finding any help. I think ford have supplied a m8 stud with 5/8" nuts?
Okay, does anyone know if the heads are tapped to accept 5/8" or m8?
What do the turbo manifold nuts need to be made of?
