I have worn the search function out researching this which means someone will find it in two seconds now. I am curious if anyone has used studs to attach the upper intake to the lower? If so where did you get them? ARP makes the stud kit for the lower to the heads but I cannot find one for the upper to the lower.

A side note, I do not want to use some cheap, crappy all thread. I realize it works but not on my car.

Trickflow uses studs for instead of the 4 short bolts but the long bolts are still bolts.

I went to the local hardware store and picked up somt grade 8 studs.

It works great.

It is much easier to get the intake positioned with out having the gasket shift.
