Should I use proper studs or bolts right on my exhaust manifold gasket?

I am replacing manifold gasket exhaust on 1976 Hilux ute. Exhaust was well secured to the manifold with the number of engineering degree 6 screws. I bought two studs generic auto shop right to use, but Part no threatened in the middle was too long, so I have two genuine Toyota asparagus. The bit of non-threatened in the study center is right for the installation, but it's just cheap steel. (Steel pin channel is smooth.) Why do car manufacturers use bolts instead of studs in these meets? Is there a reason suitable for it. Thanks to anyone.

Yes there is a reason. especially if it is an alloy cylinder head. With a bolt of bolt can be threaded all the way alloy to give maximum grip and then tighten the nut. If it is a bolt that would not have the same clamping force and the head is much more likely to be damaged. Edit: Also, if the joint is stuck or oxide, have doubled the chances of either undo the nut can be undone or stud and nut removed together.
