Lyon, in my experience, shortcuts just don't work. Suck it up, take the time, spend the extra effort and do it right.
I've spent many an hour looking at stuff like this, and the quick and dirty approach just doesn't get it.
I'm sure, however, that there will be several people telling you to just "go for it". But, they all drive Yugos.

As my wonderful father taught me " If it`s worth doing it`s worth doing right" Good luck Skip
Lyon,
I just replaced the studs on my exhaust manifold. The best way is to jack up the car and remove the exhaust manifold connection to the exhaust pipe. Then take off the air cleaners. Next, remove the carbs and take off the bolts that hold the intake and exhaust manifolds on.
It is doable in one evening even though it looks
like a nightmare. The only problem that I had was that I had to disconnect the accelerator pedal so that I could get the last nut off and leave room to take off the manifolds. I replaced the studs and now it works fine. It was well worth the effort.
