You are right, the length of the studs needs to be controlled - sometimes they stick out a little more - and the washer at the base is also critical.

It is also worthy to note that original Packard studs were not heat treated! The idea of using Stainless Steel is that the original look was closer to Nickel plating than to the Chrome that you see on most of our cars (at least the earlier models).
