When I put on my Sho Shop Y-Pipe, I first heated and then soaked the studs
in WD40 for almost one hour. They came out without much protest.

I'm trying to install the factory Y-pipe in my car as the final step to
changing the clutch.  The front exhaust flange was no problem.  The rear is
a different story.  The studs are skewed and I can't the flange over both of
them.  I read about this problem in the SHOforum but can't find it doing
numerous searches.

Does anyone have any similar experience with skewed exhaust studs and any
tricks to getting the flange on.  I don't want to try and remove the stud
for fear of breaking it.  

Thanks in advance for any information you might have.
