I was on a ride earlier today and apparently my exhaust manifold studs managed to work their way out. By the time I figured out what was going on I had lost all the studs and the gasket. I have a 2008 sportsman 800 ho efi which Is dual exhaust and whenever I look up diagrams it doesn't show what the studs are. I found ones that say they're compatible with 800s but when I look up the part number (7518234) it comes up to a single exhaust system. Will these work for the dual exhaust system? Does anyone know what the proper studs or bolts would be for this quad? Any help at all would be appreciated I have been doing research all day and don't feel that I have made any ground whatsoever with figuring out what to actually buy.

Did it actually have studs or allen head screws? Studs hardly ever fall out. Dual exhaust/single exhaust makes no difference. The mating surface on the head and the gasket are the same. Early models used actual exhaust studs and nuts like most automobiles. After 2010 Polaris used allen head screws which are easier to deal with. But either will work.
2009 and earlier 800's actually had studs, nuts and lock washers.
Studs 5135009
Nuts 7547076
Lock Washers 7556111
2010 and newer had allen head screws with lock washers # 7518984

If you lost the gasket, probably the easiest fix for you would just be a kit like below

It does have actual studs with nuts and lock washers. I checked the cylinder head diagram multiple times and I don't know how I missed it. Thank you both for the help. I will order some today.
Have to look at "valves" for the studs and on the "exhaust" section for nuts/washers if that's what you want. I changed my 2006 800 over to the screws when I rebuilt as they're much easier to deal with than studs.
Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.
