Default Header bolts?

Lets get into some serious tech talk here. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Can I use SBC header bolts to put my headers on? I don't have the ones that originally came with the FLPs.

Thanks <img src="gr_emb.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

I just used the stock ones. Once the headers got installed I gave them on more good "umph" about 2 weeks later and they have been tight ever since.

I dont know about the width of the flp flange.
I have heard some headers the bolts will bottom
out in the head but not sure which ones..
I used a dremel and cleaned the stock threads
us real nice and re-used stock bolts with a
small bit of locktite. No problems here..
