Default Header install - do I have everything I need?

Planning on installing some headers this week. I have the headers, gaskets, extensions, and will pick up the plugs tomorrow. Can I re use the bolts? Also, do I need a venturi collector or something like that? The headers have the collectors welded on. Thanks in advance.

The origional bolts are torque to yeild so you really jsut want to use them once but many people seem to re use them. I went with the stage 8 locking header bolts the are much better they will never back out on you and they look alot better.

you sure they have torque to yield exhaust bolts? I just never heard that before, just stretch bolts being used for heads..
