Im getting headers and 1.6rr pretty soon here and im just making sure i got its all right..

I'm getting the ebay stainless headers with these bolts

http://compare.ebay.com/like/1206949...=263602_304662
and the copper gaskets... im not sure about these gaskets so i was wondering if there are a better set... and maybe if there are a better set of bolts as well... these seem to be the only ones i can find that look good.
I am also pretty sure that i have to do the egr and air delete with those headers as well?


also for the 1.6rr do i need to buy new studs or do the factory ones work? I am doing a build at the beginning of the summer i am just getting some parts ready for now... so if i need to get some studs i would rather just get them now... i am also going with these fabbed aluminum

thanks

on rocker studs.. you don't have to get new ones, but the arp ones are much more stiff and keep alignment more precise.

Have you already purchased your rockers?

No i have not purchased them yet... but i will go ahead and get the arp studs then.... so if i get the studs and the rockers... not sure what brand im getting yet.. i will be able to just bolt them on and go.. i do not need anything else for the head. other than valve covers for clearance

As long as you get self aligning rockers you can just bolt them on and go, but the stock valvesprings are border line unsafe with any extra lift over stock. Some lt4 springs should do the trick and your stock valve covers will work if you trim the insides to fit.

I would say He has NOT bought anything yet. As he said if you dont have the funds for new rocker studs you CAN use your stock ones, But you need to make sure you order rockers to fit the stock studs. But i suggest new ARP studs as well

The headers look fine, and the bolts you should get are a locking header bolt, i also like to use the stainless steel ones, they dont rust ever and look good as well.

I use a 3layer metal header gasket similar to the stock one, i have used many diffrant ones in the past and these seem to work perfect, even when a bolt comes loose or anything like that happens and the car is run they dont blow out. I have blown copper before when i use to spray my car, but i now perfer the tri metal.

As for the CANTON valve covers, were you asking about what style of breather you needed? Push on style

ok that is easy enough for the breather...

i am doing a build this summer so i am going to go ahead and get the arp studs cuase im not really on a budget.. but i will get the springs and all when i do the heads in may or june...

i cant find the right arp bolts i looked on summit and jegs and i cant seem to find them

and is this the gasket you are talking about?

If you're going through the hassle of upgraded studs, you might as well get NSA rockers and guide plates.

these are correct arp header bolts?

Any SBC 3/8"x16 header bolt will work. I prefer the 1" long, 12-point, 5/16" head stainless variety.

would this be the proper strainless header bolt?

95batmobile

iTrader: (2)

yes no maybe so?

iTrader: (2)

Check...check...check....check. I would say so.

Except that kit has 16. You only need 12.

Ramair you help with with pretty much everything i think! lol you the man!

but now i have a simplier question... for the canton valve covers where i put the breather i have been reading that using a breather can put oil residue? everywhere under your hood...
is there a solution to this problem? or am i just reading wrong
