update: i ended up drilling out the manifolds to 5/16 and not re-tapping them. i made my own spring bolts and put a nut on the backside so i didn't have to tap it. i was sick of waiting for the spring bolts to show up just to get it back on the road. btw, ebay had the spring bolt kit of 3, for $6.12 + free ship. my local auto parts store had a set of 3 for $26!
