If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
Re: Header/downpipe help!
The exh. man. studs in the head are 8mm X 38mm X probably 1.25 thread.
The studs at the bottom of the manifold should be 10mm

Re: Header/downpipe help!
What I do is hand tighten the studs. Attach two nuts facing each other near the end of the stud, use a torque wrench and torque the studs to 23 ft/lbs using the exterior nut. It doesn't need much. Then you remove the nuts and put the gasket + manifold.
