Default Header Bolts

Hello, When I installed my headers before i stored the car for the winter...

We couldnt seem to get two of the bolts in on the passengers side. Its the first and the last one.

is there a special bolt that is needed? ive used a set I got at checkers, a header bolt that we had laying around and then a stock one.... all three I just cant get to thread in.

I got a reply from someone a diff forum and they said that I might have to loosen all the bolts on that side and then put the other two in kuz it might not be sitting flush? is that a good chance?

put those two bolts in first and see if they go in. take out the header completely and see if the bolt can even go through the holes. then make sure the bolts can screw into the holes on the head.
