I had a manifold stud on my ls5 go missing on the heat riser side. I have a new stud and can work it up through the heat riser to engage the manifold. However, I can only get it to go around about 1 1/2 revolutions (by hand). I attempted to oil the the threads to see if it would spin further. How do I get the stud fully seated?
Another question,
Will the stud take up the distance if i put the nut on the stud and begin torquing it?
Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appriciated
Thanks,
Pat
