I'm putting extractors on and will replace all the studs while at it. What size are the studs? Cheers guys.

They would be M10 but I think they have different thread pitch each end. Probably 1.50 & 1.25.
I only replaced the studs on #6 when I did my extractors.
I can check a little later when I get out to the shed - I kept the 2 I changed.
I think I saw full set with nuts on Ebay.

Also, when I fitted mine, I welded some flat bar tabs on and refitted the original heatshield. Have some pics if you want to see..

Ok, here's an original stud. It's M10 x 1.25 both ends.

I'm toying with the idea of using 12.9 cap head screws with my turbo manifold but need to research the pros & cons..

you sure that's 1.25 looks like 1.5 to me, being the coarser of the two
Happy to be wrong
