Replacing header pipe 200 1991

They are studs similar to those in the head to handle the exhaust manifold.

Due to age and such they can be tricky. Use lots of penetrating oil and heat and remove in a alternate pattern (5 or so turns each bolt in series so as to not load one stud with all the remaining torque). That way they don't snap.

Drilling out and rethreading and reinstalling the studs involved removing the manifold, which can lead to head studs breaking and that means removing the head...
