3.2 Intake Studs

[bullethole]

I'm in the process of converting my 82SC (3.0) over to the 3.2 intake. I think I need to get longer studs for the intake manifold to bolt to the head because of the spacers. I can't seem to find the right part on our host.. anyone know what length is needed?

I'm right there with you on same project.

M8x51mm appears to be recommended length, also found that exhaust barrel bolts are suggested (see my post of this morning.

For the Intake nylock are fine.

The problem with barrel nuts is if your stud is protruding too hight you will not be able to thigh it down as the stud will push your tool out.

For the Exhaust one, copper lock nut Porsche 911 & Carrera Exhaust Pipes - Page 4 are fine for the same reason. When I took the barrel nut off my exhaust some of them had 5 washers so they could be tight down.
