Quick header bolt question
About to install some LT's on a buddies car and he didn't buy aftermarket header bolts. Planning on just reusing the stockers. But in case one breaks, does anyone know what size these bolts are? Can always just run to Ace and pick up some of whatever gets broken.
With a little luck and a lot of PB blaster hopefully this won't be a problem. Thanks!

You can always take one down to NAPPA and match it up.
As for reusing the stockers with headers. You may need to put washers under them so they do not bottom out. Header flanges are shorter than stock manifolds.

Got it all done and they came out easier than expected. Thanks guys! Used the stock bolt and gaskets. Not a leak that I could hear so hopefully everything stays kosher.
