<p><span><strong>*NOW OFFERING EXTENDED STUDS FOR AFTERMARKET HEADERS</strong></span></p> <p><span><span>Installing the OEM exhaust manifold studs can be a real pain. Since the stock studs do not have a drive end, you need to "double nut" them on and off, which can be time consuming and tricky. Our upgraded exhaust manifold studs come with a torx or allen drive end to easily install them into your BMW cylinder head. Make sure to apply a little bit of oil onto the threads so they turn in easily. A must have upgrade for any BMW owner.</span></span></p> <p><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Sizes:</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-mce-fragment="1">M8x1.25 - OEM - 40MM (Hex Drive End)</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">M8x1.25 - EXTENDED - 45MM (Hex Drive End)</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">M7x1.0 - OEM - 39MM (E Torx Drive End)</span><br data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">M7x1.0 - EXTENDED - 47MM (E Torx Drive End)</span><br>  <br><span><span>Save <strong>10%</strong> with the kit over buying individually</span></span> <br>  <br><span><span><strong>Kits Include:</strong></span></span></p> <ul> <li>Required Exhaust Studs for Your Engine</li> <li>Required Exhaust Copper Nuts for Your Engine</li> </ul> <p><em>Pictures may not reflect the actual kit you are buying.  All kits come with the exact number of studs and nuts for the engine you choose.</em></p> <p><strong><meta charset="utf-8">*Note: If you are running OBD1 cast iron headers on your M5x engine, please choose the extended stud option.
