Re: new header bolts

I got a full set of header bolts from Advance Auto for like $5. They are name brand and the guy I talked to actually recommended them over locking bolts.

Oh my god those locking bolts are a PITA and a joke. Use regular bolts, or reuse stock.

Re: new header bolts

Those stage 8 bolts look like a pita to put on. I bought Breslin locking header bolts for my 96RS however I haven't put them on yet as my header gasket are not leaking yet. I believe Percy's bought out Breslin as the new Percy's locking header bolts look just like the Breslins I have. These are similiar in design to ARP poly locks for roller rockers.

Pretty much.

You'll need a 1" underhead length and 5/16 threading
