Default Headers and y arrived!!

Ordered them sat online and they got here today. Got em from texas speed...
Did yall use the stock manif. bolts and some anti cease for the install? I know to reuse the stock gaskets, but not about the bolts, and did you need any exhaust gasket sealer? There was a post a while back but i dont remember what it said and i cant find it. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Derek

reuse the factory manifold bolts. new header gaskets are only about 25 if you feel like replacing them while your in there. i didnt use header gasket material at the Y and have no problems. penetrating oil is a must! soak them bolts down good

I went with some stainless bolts. Stockers look like dookie and can break pretty easily.
