I recently took off the bolts from the exhaust manifold and all I saw on the thread of the bolts were little pieces of metal thats wrapped around the bolt...now all of the bolts are loose and has been stripped and now I have boost leak like crazy...is there anything I can do to fix this problem? im planning on switching to all double sided threaded studs and use nuts to tighten...will I have to rethread the head to a bigger size like 10mm? any comments or ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks
