Broken exhaust studs - shop recommendations?
 
Our 2000 F150 4.6L has "The Tick" and I suspect it is an exhaust manifold stud issue - primarily because as I was under the hood this weekend I found lying in the engine bay a rusted nut with a rusted half-stud sticking out of it; neatly sheared at the base of the nut!

Does anyone in the Kelowna, BC area have any recommendations as to a shop that could do the stud replacement work? Has anyone in the Kelowna area had their exhaust manifold studs replaced?

I have made any calls yet, I figured I'd check here first. ;)

Just to wrap things up, I ended up getting Jerry's Carline Muffler on Windsor Rd to remove the exhaust manifold, remove the old studs, put in new stainless steel studs, machine the manifold true again and finally replace the muffler with a more free-flowing unit to help prevent heat backup again.

When we sold the truck in 2011 it was still nice and quiet, so kudos to Jerry's Carline. :)

I still see it around sometimes when I visit West Kelowna.
