Message	common problem -- while pulling my exhaust i broke 4 of the 6 bolts that connect the precats to the exhaust section with the cats. they were totally rusted and seized and they just snapped off easily. i know i need to drill out the old studs, but does anyone know specifically what i should replace them with? maybe even part numbers or specs? i know i can get new oem studs from coz but it's not clear to me if those will work after i drill the old ones out. the old ones don't appear to have any sort of lip on them that holds them in, it looks like maybe they were screwed or pressed in? any info you can provide is appreciated. thanks. andrew davidoff
