My exhaust manifold uses 7/16" studs (and nuts) to attach the exhaust pipe - the exhaust manifold has stud threads in which the studs screw into.

In an earlier slant six exhaust manifold I had bolts were used to attach the exhaust pipe.

Was the manifold with the studs a later design manifold?

Evidently. I didn't check every year, to see what year it changed. Just jumped thru some parts manuals. 62 manual shows bolts and nuts, as does 1967. Studs are shown in the 1974 part manual.

Perhaps the 'bean-counters' decision to control costs!
