I'm having a heck of a time putting my exhaust back on. Does anyone out there have any exhasut manifold reinstallation tips for me ? I've noticed on the 1 & 4 manifold there are larger and smaller stud holes. Maybe that's an indication of an order of installation ??? I think I'll try securing the studs in the larger holes first. Any suggestions would be appreciated !

It's been a while since I did it, and I remember it was tricky. I might have loosened an engine mount and jacked the engine up a little. I know I moved the coolant line out of the way. I don't remember the stud holes being different sizes though.
