Reference that culls out hardware specs

It seems it might have been a parts catalog from
the Roadster Factory that culls out the parts' specs,
right?

Can someone clarify if this is true and which it might
be? Still available?

I need info on where the different size exhaust studs
go in the head. I think I have three different sizes:

5/16, 1 and 1/4 inches long -- total three?

3/8, 1 and 1/4 inches long.

3/8, 1 and 3/4 inches long.

The 5/16 size locations are obvious; but the 3/8's,
I don't know where the longer ones go. Can anybody
help?

Yeah I was looking for something similar. For each of my Triumph motorcycles, I have a parts catalog that has exploded views of every part of the bike.

The nice part is you can usually tell the size and type of the bolts from the part description. It saved me a lot of money. I was able to type up a list of the nuts and bolts I needed and just buy them at hardware store for a 3rd the price.

I just ordered a parts catalog for a 76 TR6 and I am hoping it is the same thing that I have for the bikes.

If I remember correctly, the longer ones go in the middle row. I believe that the number of each (assumign you are using the originals) should give the game away - memory says that there are 4 on the bottom row, 3 on the top and 6 in the middle. They are longer to accommodate the rugby ball shaped clamps.

Cheers
Alistair

Edit - Oops, I got it mixed up. The 6 longer studs are the bottom row, the four shorter 3/8x24 studs are the middle row (for the top of the exhaust manifold).

A picture is worth a thousand (curse) words:

EDIT: Sorry, one stud was missing on the first picture.
