383 Exhaust manifold question

[ajk1990]

Any idea where to get manifold studs at?
I can't find for the life of me anything locally or any one that can point me in the right direction.
Looking online are different from what I have and it's just driving me crazy.

Maybe a part number or something? Anything? Lol

First question. Is it a 383 2bbl with the log manifolds or is it a 383 4 bbl with the hp manifolds. Most internet pictures show the extended long nuts which are not used for the log manifolds. There is company online that has restoration hardware that had these for my 68 383 with the log manifold. Not the cheapest in the world, but had the black studs and the correct thickness nuts. I need to look for one of my invoices or online threads. M&? Hardware???

If you just need the studs, they are the same if you have the log or the HP manifolds.


Here's one with the nuts for a log type manifold.

Here's another for the HP manifold with the long nuts.

I have found the studs at a well stocked "Mom and Pop" type hardware store, but never at a big box type store.

Depending on the year and manifolds. Exhaust Manifold Hardware Kit 1968-71 C-Body 383/440 HP, Exhaust Manifold Fasteners, MP-EMHK103 Reproduction, NOS and Used Mopar Muscle Car Parts

Mega parts has many kits depending on your application. I typed "exhaust" in the search box.

@Big_John if I recall correctly, you were the one that shared the web site (along time ago)that had a lot OEM style hardware. M&S? R&S? RS specialties?

Finally got the right combination
R/T Specialties - Mopar Fasteners, Clips & Hardware

These guys had the studs and nuts at one time as well

I pray your studs are at spec. Some fellow on the B body forum bewailed some bad crap from Mancini, likely asiatic, which merely relieved him of $$. I re-used old exhaust manifold studs but needed two new ones, and did well with a pair made with the Dorman label, a mildly pleasant surprise. I looked at what you ordered, and it looks decent. Might use them myself. I've done well with Ace Hardware #8 black oxide studs for some stuff too.
