Re: Exhaust mainfold and downpipe connection
Those old super rusted studs will probably snap off if you put any torque to them. Which you'll probably have to do anyway to get the pipe seperated from the manifold. Then you'll need to remove the manifold to remove the busted studs. Then install new studs with new nuts.
If you have to remove the manifold from the head. Try not to bust off any of the manifold bolts... because then the head usually has to come off for a machine shop to get it out.
