Default Adding Headers Soon?

Yeah, I know. This is a Strange request. I need a set of exhaust manifold bolts.

I'm yanking my Pacesetters and ORY so that I can meet state visual inspection. Plus, I got tired of the ground clearance loss with the clamps on the ORY. Anyway, I have the manifolds and Y-pipe that came with my car but the guy I bought it from didn't keep the bolts. I could hit the hardware store, but hardware store bolts typically suck, and rust immediately. Besides, I know lots of you guys are pulling you maifolds for headers so I figured this i the right time to ask.

Anyone got a full set of exhaust manifold bolts they'd like to part with as you install your headers?

what's wrong with the ones holding your pacesetter headers in? If I was back home in IL I would probably have my old stock set but sorry bro, I'm in the desert til April

I could probably do that in a pinch, but the heads of the header bolts are REALLYT small. I'm not sure how they're work or how I'd get to them with the casties. Plus, the flange on the manifolds is a bit thicker. Probably not enough to matter but the header bolts might be a tad short.
