hey all im taking my dragIII kit off and doing some improvements but when i put the drag kit on it cam with some bolts and the studs had to be taken out of the head on the exhaust side.......

now i am going to change some things namely a manifold how do i re stud the head??

or should i just use the bolts again?? i dont want any leaks because i think it is leaking now.

anyone had this issue???

You could use the same, but I like the Honda studs that come in the head. They worked very well w/my drag kit and I have had no leaks.

yeah im gonna look at keeping the old bolts vice putting in new studs, but how in the heck do you put new studs in a head, ive never done this before

You can use two regular nuts (8mm x1.25 usually) locked against each other with 2 spanners. Then you can use a socket to drive the stud in. Once it's in you un-jam the nuts and spin the]nuts off by hand.
