Synchro your method is neater than mine. I also use brass nuts which I thought might be good, but changed my mind recently when they will only torque to about 25 lbs ft, especially on the manifold. I thought they would be less likely to seize on the studs, but the low torque availabl for brass is not good, I think.
I use copper/lead/tin/MoS2 antiseize anyway. (Rocol J166 which I used to manufacture)
