Poking around on the Offenhauser site mentioned in another post, and noticed that most (if not all) of the products seem to be adding some perecentage for the "grand old OFFY name" (to put it politely). Anyway, I noticed an "intake manifold bolt kit" which looks like it's mostly studs, rather than bolts. Would studs be any easier to mount the manifold with than bolts? Seems like ya could "hang" the manifold(s) on the studs easier than supporting the manifolds and trying to stab a bolt and washer. Any thoughts on using studs rather than bolts?

The factory put studs in the head for the manifolds. I think it was a good idea.
