The stock studs or similar are adequate. Blue or Red Loctite if any is fine. The studs will get only a little hotter than the aluminum rotor housing. Same for the header flange. Only that area close to the header pipe/port will see much heat. Safety wire the nuts.

So my question is what are most of you all flying with...studs or bolts?
 
Also, if I add studs, is there a product anyone can recommend (such as a loc tite type product) that will help keep the stud from backing out but also survive in the high temp environment by the exhaust manifold?  Is the RED Loctite made for this type of duty factor?
 
Thanks for any information.
