Exhaust Stud broke!! what size to buy?

I had a new turbo kit bolted up and the exhaust stud broke from being rusted to hell. Anyone know what size or sizes I need to buy? I want stainless steel studs and nuts, but so far have only found M8 kits. I was under the impression that I need M8 and M10, but I am unaware of the thread and length. I also kinda thought they were universal... Any input would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS!
Jennifer

jenn theres i think 8 m8s and 2 m10 on the outer edgesof exaust manifold, hope this helps , did you break the stud in the head? or you just replacing the studs ? ss bolts wont matter the ex manifold goes through so many heat, cold cycles it dosent matter what kind of material it is, just get oem studs IMO

I had to buy a tap when i broke off one of the bolts that uses the 14mm nut on it. It ended up being a 10mm with a 1.25 thread count. Don't know about the other bolts which use the 12mm nuts but i could easily find out.

I just bought some from the dealership, 7.46 per bolt. Must have some gold in it or something.

THANKS A LOT GUYS!!! wow, thats great and helps me a lot. Yea, I broke the stud off in the head but but able to get the rest of it out and found a bolt that fit, but now with my new mani, the rusted nuts looks real ****ty. LOL So since I need that one, I figured it would look much nicer to upgrade all of them and I wont have to worry about rust with the SS.

Thanks again to everyone who put in their 2 cents. I really appreciate it!!!
