    As stated in the title: I'm in need of the correct stud that the wing nut screws to, holding the air cleaner lid down.

    Both the ends are threaded - one more than the other - and the middle portion is smooth.

    I haven't even looked for repros, as I'd much rather use an OEM part.

    Thanks in advance!

    Do you know the exact length. I have studs like that.

    I'm told it should stick out of the air cleaner lid 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch - and it's black.

    That's not much help but the best I can do for now. Thanks!

    Just so happens I was messing with my carb today and it has an original stud like the one Brett is looking for. I measured it and it is 4 1/16 inches long.

    I do stock these IF you don't find one.

    I also have the factory wing nuts in phosphate or chrome!
