Correct.  You can buy studs in the M14x1.5 thread pitch but they are not 
long enough.  I also got a quote from a local thread rolling company in 
Detroit, and the cost wasn't too bad if I made about 20 sets, but I 
wasn't about to put up the cash for that.  It was going to come out to 
over 100.00/car which I thought was pushing it.
