Thanks to Don and Herb for their suggestions. A stud sounds like a good solution. The sealer I used was Permatex Thread Sealer w/ PTFE. It came in a tube and was the consistency of caulking. I'll look for some of the stuff you suggested Don and use it on any that I take out to reseal. Spent the evening in the garage welding up my exhaust. That job is now done and it's on to some of those smaller issues. May be able to make a short shake down cruise tomorrow nite. That'll make the wife happy as it's her b-day and it seems she has been more anxious to get this car on the road than I have. Paul L.
