Not to knock down on RRE but you can get those studs from your local hardware store for about 1.35 each. I don't know what RRE sells them for. I also agree with ^^, use the BLUE locktight.
As far as copper washers *shrug*. I used SS split lock washers and grade 8.8 nuts and have not lost any.
You can get a multi layer steel exhaust manifold from the dealer (dodge) for about $23. That has worked better than any other gasket I have tried. (I have not had a copper one yet).
