Default Jet-Hot Headers Install Questions

Which gaskets should I use? I was thinking about the GM gaskets and Stage 8 bolts. I also need t know about the O2 extensions. What length? I tried the search, but I didn't get what I was looking for. Thanks.

You get the O2 extentions from jet hot,where you got the headers from.I believe there 12" long and $25 for the pair.
And reuse the stock GM manifold gaskets or buy new GM gaskets,don't use the one's jet-hot sent you.

Also, use your stock GM header bolts.They can be reused and work just fine.

Why can't you use the jet-hot gaskets?
