CAUTION: The Banks studs have
different threads on each end.
9. Make sure that the M8 ends go into
the engine intake manifold. The two
shorter studs go on the inboard side
(closest to the valve cover). Apply the
supplied thread lock compound at the
M8 ends and hand-tighten the studs
into the intake manifold.
10. Using the two
5
⁄16”-24 nuts
supplied, tighten the studs into the
intake by threading both nuts onto
the stud, then tighten the nuts against
each other with two
1
⁄2” open end
wrenches. Tighten and torque the
stud to 3-5 ft-lbs by turning the top
nut. Remove the nuts from the stud
by using two open end wrenches to
loosen the nuts in relation to each
other. Repeat the process for each
stud. The process is shown in
Figure 2.
