Stainless Exhaust Manifold Studs
I have a 2006 Hemi. Two of my exhaust manifold studs are broken. Read few threads and people mention a stainless stud as alternative. Both the Dorman 03211 Exhaust Manifold Hardware Kit and the Mopar Manifold Stud 6508218AA are not stainless. Will appreciate any advise where to shop for a stainless stud.

Without getting into the properties of each steel, fatigue, SCC, and introducing yet another dissimilar metal into the mix .... imho, just replace with the offered kitted steel studs and carryon enjoying the truck.
I used the Dorman when I did mine. Pleased with the comparative price and quality of the studs. Job went well, no issues since, and none expected.
