I ordered my headers from summit awhile ago and I'm in the process of putting them in now. Are they supposed to come with the studs from the header to the h-pipe? I just realized mine do not have these studs. I know I can use some regular bolts but that makes it a pain in the ass with needing a wrench on the other side of the bolt. Can you buy the studs from a hardware store? What size would I need?

Also I just checked the BBK header bolts to my stock ones and the stock are actually longer. I measured them and their 1" while the BBK are 3/4".

They should have the studs for the H-pipe. I don't know what size they are off hand, but I'd be calling BBK to ask for some.

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

Ditto. They are suposed to come with the studs. You can get the studs at a hardware store if you know the size.
