Would you recommend using hi- temp anti seize on exhaust studs?

I would. But then be prepared for the studs to unscrew when removing the exhaust next time.

Paint the studs with Milk of Magnesia. Rust bonding is your enemy.

A member here sells 10mm headed 8 X 1.25 flanged nuts.
They are not lock nuts and they are the ONLY thing I'll use in this application now. Makes it much easier to install/remove. I'd anti-seize both the stud to head and the nut to stud. Having the stud come out of the head during removal is not a big thing IMO. Having one seize and then break is a NIGHTMARE! |

This is what is going on exhaust studs and fasteners going forward:

I always try to use new hardware/studs.
Even on modern junk. 50-year-old stuff... HELL YES! Now, it's easy to buy cheap ass Chinese stuff today... Hardware needs to come from Germany, USA, or Japan. ARP usually makes nice hardware... This is the longest 8mm stuff they list https://arp-bolts.com/kits/arpkit-detail.php?RecordID=2106 Pricy but comes with UBER 10 mm 12 point headed nuts. Shorter is available in packs of 8. Most of the time studs from a German parts supplier (Pelican/others) will be decent quality at much more budget friendly prices. I have three grades of anti-seize! Copper Aluminum Nickle There's a reason I'm the TECHNICALninja! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ninja.gif) If I had to buy all of my "shop supplies" at a single time I'd wipe out the shop checkbook! The Copper and Nickle are every 5 years or so. I go through two big bottles of the normal aluminum crap every year! |
