For those dealing with stretched studs only: Do you have a cast iron manifold with a vertical flange?

As before, my tilted non-cast setup has no issues.
I propose a dowel pin solution for vertical people. Dowel pin between each stud. Then you have 4 dowels holding the main stress with turbo and manifold. Weight is all supported by them. Studs/bolts/nuts are just holding them together. It does the job holding the head and bottom end together.... (different materials and bolts i know... but still :P )

I've tried to stay out of these threads...and when I do get in I'm largely ignored. I don't have the problem...but can only offer an educated perspective on it.
