Not pictured are special washers that are laser cut from the same phonelic material... These go under the nuts to isolate the heat transfer up the stud and through the nut and itno the manifold!

The issue doesn't exist very much at all because the studs are steel, not aluminum. Since aluminum is a great conductor the manifolds get really hot when bolted straight to the head- this material seriously reduces that.

When using carbs this manifold heat is a real killer because it heats up the fuel in the float bowls and hot fuel doesn't atomize well at all.
