Hi Ted

Rs components

They are stainless steel

I will take a look and see if I still have eight left but no promises

Best wishes Al

My engine came with a full set of SS exhuast studs fitted by the PO - is it a trick of the photo or are they egg headed domes or standard ones?
I'll take a look at the RS components website.

Thanks Allan - I  might have a couple in a pack I bought from Megapacks a while back - they look much neater than the standard set up.

Just a thought, I seem to remember reading somewhere that it is not advisable to use stainless nuts on stainless bolts/studs. (Or am I losing the plot???)

I believe that theory has been firmly debunked aside from the odd stalwart.
