the simple solution would be to just get them from speed inc. they're only $34.99. i just called them up 30 mins ago and had them add the stage 8 header bolts to my order, and along with that switch the GM steel header gaskets for the set of percy's MLS header gaskets. i went to the track on tuesday and heard some bad things about the GM OEM steel gaskets with aftermarket headers, so i changed my order. it should FINALLY ship out monday after 4 weeks of the O2 extensions being on backorder

get them from speed inc...
but be warned, a standard header bolt is 10mm and the stage 8's are 11mm ... found that out in the middle of the install and had to go find a ratcheting end wrench to complete my set
and a socket just for *****.
choco, even though you're full of yourself, I'd have sold you my extensions had I known you were waiting they're from speed inc and I just yanked them today

As fas as the gaskets go I dislike felpro but there exhaust manifold/header gaskets work great. I put them on my car when I first did the headers(never re-tightened them) and they never leaked. I just dead heads/cam and reused the same gaskets and haven't had a leak yet.
I also have the stage 8 bolts but I threw away the stupid clips. There a pain in the *** and in my opinion not needed, haven't had a leak yet and haven't re-torqued the bolts.

theres not a damn thing wrong with stock OEM gm gaskets, many many many people reuse theirs with no troubles. I bought new ones for peace of mind. I think hes a bit delerious

i didn't feel like arguing with him, so i just nodded and agreed and got on the phone with speed inc. and changed my order to the percy's seal-4-good header gaskets. i hear those are the best header gaskets on the market and they're marketed as "the last LS1 header gasket you'll ever buy." i guess we'll find out, won't we?
