Default Header bolts

Set of the new Hedman headers on are order... What bolts are everyone using? And a new stock gasket is best right? Thanks!

Headman Headers?

I used the bolts supplied with my Flowtech's, but the stocks would have worked just fine.

And yes a stock gasket works fine too.

Hedman is making a few different headers for LS1's now...

coated/uncoated emissions equipped... (non-stepped)
and coated/uncoated, no emissions...stepped

No idea when mine will get here (on backorder so far till 4/1). But I saw a "pre production" set and they looked great...Also only $250 for a coated stepped header... (no they aren't cheaply made- Hedman just has an economy of scale because they make LOTS of headers and get materials dirt cheap).

Will let you know how they are once they arrive.

The only problem with the Hedmans is they are a small stepped.......1-5/8" to 1-3/4".
