I'm installing Richard Good's triple ZS maniflod on our '76 TR6, and I like to replace hardware wherever possible. When I removed the existing manifolds, some of the studs stayed in the head, while 3

Normally yes, but it depends entirely on how badly they are corroded into place. Personally, I would skip the red Loctite. Anti-seize is definitely a good idea, though. If the only thing wrong with

Tom, I would replace the stud where the nut would not come off. The studs that are still in the head should be fine. I used anti-seize on both sides of the stud on my TR4 project. I would rather have

Only thing I'd add is to use brass nuts along with the anti-seize. My understanding is that the dissimilar metals (steel studs & brass nuts) won't "bond" with time i.e rust together. Bob Danielson 1

In the old days, brass manifold nuts were standard on most cars, for the very reason you stated. I generally use them on TRs. They should still be readily available. Triumph used copper plated steel

I would keep the original studs. Get a stud puller (a special device that is used with a 1/2" drive breaker bar) and hold the stud with this while breaking the nut loose. You can also use a hacksaw

My first real car, a '69 Fiat 124 Spider had brass manifold-to-pipe nuts. It just seemed like a good idea, especially since it blew its gasket every 12 months. -- Jim Muller jimmuller@rcn.com '80 Spi

You see, that's where you DON'T need brass nuts. If you are removing the manifolds annually there is not sufficient time for the parts to seize. Frankly, I think it is bold of Fiat to consider using

That's good in theory. I'll send you some brass nuts with broken studs frozen inside if you like. Use antisieze. Dave == This list supported in part by The Vintage Triumph Register == http://www.vtr.

what is the recommended torque settings for the nuts that attach to the manifold studs for an early tr4? thanks!

My book says 22-24 ft lb, which seems about right (tho I never bother using a torque wrench). More important, IMO, is to use new lock washers and check the nuts for tightness occasionally. On my TR3
