Manifold Stud Installation ???

[55 Fargo]

Hi all, I have to replace 3 manifold studs that did back out when I was removing the manifolds.

I bought 3 new ones, what is the correct procedure to install?

I figure it is as this, please correct if I am worng, apply coat of "never seize", on the threads, torque the stud down till it stops at no thread area, would that be it?

Thanx Fred

Fred,

I'd put sealant, such as pipe thread sealer, on the threads. Some of these studs go into the water jacket. Then screw two nuts together tight onto the outer end and screw them into the block good-n-tite by turning on the outer nut. You can then loosen the nuts and remove them.
