Do the studs in the pic install on the ends of the manifolds?
These are for stock 71 340 Dart exhaust Manifolds.
There are 5 in the pic, does one with a bolt on it go on the right passenger end?
Picture or diagram would be helpful, just want to make sure I get it right.

Thanks

So I've got 68-70 340 manifolds on 3 Darts. The four matched studs go in the far ends, both sides, but you are missing important hardware. There are long big tubes that need a long bolt with a fat shaft and a bolt head, they go down the long tube and are wide enough to catch the manifold mating surface at the bottom of the tube...wow this is hard to explain... I'll take some pictures of the installed manifolds and the odd bolt you are missing and post again.
 
OOPS - just reread your post - 71 manifolds. Maybe they don't mount like this, but here's some pics of the earlier ones and the odd bolt in case yours is similar. I've never seen a stock exhaust on a small block without studs in the far end holes. Those studs go into the water jacket (don't forget to use thread sealer) and eliminate the need to drain the water before removing the manifold.
