Well, so long as they aren't more than $1 and change per it
isn't too bad (with 20 studs it would add up quickly but
at the same time it is a fat pain in the ass to replace busted
studs and manifold gaskets can add up to that quickly as well
if I have to pull the manifold to deal with busted studs).

Is the correct torque determined by the type of stud? I'd
imagine that part of it is the strenth of the material the
stud is threaded into and part of it is the fastener. I'd
also imagine that stainless is far less tolerant of incorrect
torques than standard steel since it is much more brittle.
If I use stainless studs would I have to use stainless bolts
as well?

Lastly, for those hard to get to bolts, would it be difficult
to torque them down correctly if I have to use an extension
and one of those bendy thingys that look like they've got
ujoints in them? How the heck do you torque those to the
correct torque setting when a skinny box end wrench only
barely has room to get in there?

Oh -- where do I send the check for the drive shaft?
Thanks for those crazy little magnets; they're *fantastic*.
I stuck a hard drive to a file cabinet in my office with
a couple of them.
