[QUOTE="MrGiggles, post: 518391, member: 22613"] There are two studs listed in the exhaust/mid section housing diagram that appear to belong to those holes, part number for them is 16-56295. 7/16 diameter but no mention of thread pitch. It looks like your long studs may be stainless, it's known to gall. I'd get a tap and try to chase the threads in both holes. If the threads on the studs are plugged with aluminum or corrosion you may want to run them through a die as well. Use a good lubricant when going together, grease is fine. Absolute worst case, you can drill the holes out in the midsection and install a heli-coil or solid insert. [/QUOTE]
