Several questions relating to the exhaust manifold studs/nuts:
1. What are the torque specs for these?
2. There are two length sizes for the studs can you provide a diagram of where the long and short studs go for each bank?

Good evening,

I attached diagrams of the manifolds and you can see the longer studs location by the number of threads showing. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

The torque is 22 lbs.
