Why donīt you have studs?

How are you going to fit the exhaust without them?

Try to stick the gaskets with a little drop of grease

do have studs but they all came out in fact they were not that tight,was thinking grease or abit of high temp sealer smeared on them to tack in place

Bit late now for Jim but for anyone else looking into this, there's a good YouTube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6TL52R81V0, in which Robert uses a length of detal floss (presumably 'cos it's stronger than sewing cotton) wrapped around the studs to hold the gaskets in place.
