BBK says gaskets and bolts are included with the Ceramic LTs (Part # 15410).

How do you guys feel about these items? Good idea to head over to Ford and grab some OEM gaskets?

How about the bolts?

Thanks for the quick reply. I was recommended SCE copper gaskets but I remember hearing that most people like to use Ford. Just need to confirm this Anybody used those?

I had BBK's on my 96 Cobra. I used Ford gaskets. I've used Fel-Pro's as well and they didn't leak.

Do NOT use the stock studs/nuts. The studs are too long and it gives trouble when installing and removing the bolts. You need end wrenches to get the bottom bolts tight. These a PITA to do in the car. I'd drop the K-member if I was you. Anyways, get some nice bolts and ditch the stud/nut thing.

Well I am unsure what type of hardware the BBKs come with so I guess I'll wait until I have the parts in hand and go from there.

I used Percy's seal 4 good headers gaskets. They are an aluminum cruch type gasket. Supposed to be reusable, but I doubt if I would use them again. Been on for 8 months and no leaks.
