exhaust manifold bolts

[jaredbos 1]

use the correct bit on them and theyll come right out.

sometimes that doesnt work use 2 nuts on the end and torque the first nut backwards and it should come out.

yeah.. thats not what im talking about.. im talking about the studs that the exhaust manifold hangs on.. one of them is in the way of getting a head bolt out of the side of the head

yeah put one nut on half way down, then tighten another one on it then back the inside one out and it will pull the stud out. Or buy a stud extractor.
