Stud or bolt?

[Larry Colen <lrcar@red4est.com>]

In order to remove the exhaust manifold on my MGB, I must remove the 
studs, not just the nuts from the two outside holes.  It seems that it 
would be a lot easier to replace those two studs with bolts, and save
myself a step in both the disassembly and reassembly processes.

Is this a good idea?  A bad idea?  The way that it's really supposed to
be?
