Hi there, I am replacing the exhaust and I was wondering what stud bolts were. I am going to guess that they are what bolt the front and intermediate pipe to the cat. I think I saw six holes altogether. Thanks ahead of time!
 
bolts are obviously round threaded metal with a head usually in the shape of a hexagon. A stud has no head. In you diagram the studs connect the exhaust manifold to the pipe and are on the extreme left side of the diagram.
 
sorry I don't know why I said stud bolts I am just trying to figure out what I should use to connect my cat to my front pipe and my intermediate pipe. The ones on the far left are a bolt and spring but it does not say what to use the cat. The only other thing Rockauto has on their website in the exhaust section are these

Where do these fit into things?

but I am looking for what connects the cat to the front pipe and back pipe on a three bolt application. Can I just use any kind of bolt? I am not welding this.
 
You use 6 bolts with lock washers and nuts. Just make sure they are automotive grade not something from home depot.
