Is there a proper procedure for installing studs?
Thanks...Dave
The above is a good idea.

You can get a stud with male or female hex on the end.

Because of it's small drive, I would install them with a "smear" of anti-seize, nipped only, then fit the manifold nuts, torque to 25 lbft, then fit the fuel log, torque to 10-15 lbft.
