350x exhaust studs...

[Ddw350]

trying to assemble my 400ex header that i modified to fit my 350x...im looking for the exhaust studs that screw into the head to hold the pipe on. local dealer shrugged me off,ebay nothing and im not sure of the size of them.ive looked at a few pics online but dont have any part numbers as of yet...any ideas on this?

Go to discounthondaparts.com they have them. I ordered new ones back in June.

The thread is M8x1.25. I have an one extra set of 4 in STAINLESS steel. I used the same on my 350x. It will NEVER rust! I also used stainless nut and washer to complete it and make it bulletproof. PM me is you want the extra set, and I'll set you a price. --- Jon.

If you go stainless make sure to use plenty of antiseize. Aluminum and stainless dont like each other and have a war of dissmilar metals. I know this from being a boat owner. My boat manuals say to use it to combat the electrolisis that occures between the two metals. My machinest buddy also tells me this too.

your local auto store should have them napa is best. they are in the dorman section. they do not have stainless

local stores like napa and others had nothing...mainly they were to lazy to look for them as they arent on a vehicle they can look up on the computer. i ordered some from fastenal but they were wrong too,ended up going back to honda and talkin to someone who actually gave a crap!

McMaster/Carr has threaded SS rod that I make into studs for all the heads I fixed.

Honda is only zinc plated. Not sure how long your gonna be into this but I am until I cannot ride anymore...

Just go to Home Depot or Lowes or Ace and buy stainless bolts and cut the head off.

[Dirtcrasher]

Sure, for a OEM head. Fully threaded is hard to find (McMaster)...

For a bad head, I have to go a bit deeper before hitting an oil gallery. so custom studs are how I dealt with it...............

i ordered new ones from honda..they were like 2 dollars each so i got a handful just in case. i though about skipping the studs and just using bolts instead...but since they were only a few bucks i went the stud route..

local stores like napa and others had nothing...mainly they were to lazy to look for them as they arent on a vehicle they can look up on the computer.they have them, they are in the big orange parts bins that say dorman on them. idiots.

i went the stud route..



To each his own I guess. :lol: I usually feel good going with oem. Glad you found your stud. I mean, "studs".

[Ddw350]
