Post subject:  Manifold intallation questions.

I am planning on replacing my exhaust manifold this weekend. On the two outboard bolts that hold the manifolds together, is it OK to use grade 5 bolts, or should I use grade 8? Also, should I use lock washers under the heads and under the inboard nut?

The factory used low grade bolts here with flat washers under the heads.

To maintain your future sanity, you could upgrade to stainless steel bolts..Dave

Stainless steel expands more than cast iron.
