Can anyone tell me the size of the bolts that hold the exhaust manifold on the right side?
Metric, american?

Any info would be great!!!

I just drilled mine out last weekend. Same 2 studs broke on my V6. The thread size for the head side is 5/16-18 and the thread size for the heatshiled size is 5/16-24. You are going to be better off drilling them out and using 3/8" bolts to replace the flimsy 5/16" bolts. Easy-outs will not budge them, so your only option is going to be re-drilling and tapping.
