Got a situation on an aluminum manifold where someone has replaced one of the four 5/16"studs where the carburetor bolts on with a 3/8" stud. I've been looking on line tonight for a step down stud from 3/8 to 5/16. I saw a few but they weren't long enough on the 5/16 side to go through the carb flange. I'm guessing somewhere down the line on this early Torker, this particular hole was stripped out and that's how they decided to fix it. I don't really want to drill my flange on the carb.
