Broken exhaust manifold studs

Broken exhaust manifold studs
OK, while removing the y-pipe I broke all 6 (yep all of them) studs that go between the manifold and y-pipe. I dropped the manifolds and tried to blowtorch them out, to no avail. Can I just grind them down and then drill them out, then re-tap the hole and install new studs? Does anyone know the part number for the studs, or how much they would be? Or would it just be easier getting new (used) manifolds?

time for headers no just joking modding doesnt fix anything believe me. What i did was grind them off then drill them out then i just dropped a bolt down in it screwed a nut on tight and i didnt even have the slightest leak

You're saying you just dropped a bolt down from up top and put a not on the bottom, similar to the stock setup?? That sounds good to me. I wanted to do headers (it pisses me off doing this work just for the stock manifolds) but I don't have the cash right now. Probably next season. Thanks.
