What do you guys use?
I got a used BBK cat'd h-pipe. When I went to un-install the factory exhaust about 3 different kinds of bolts were used. I got it all put back together (using the same bolts I took off...temporarilly) but I have a huge leak coming off of the headers. I think it's mostly due to the previous owner (I've had this car 3 weeks) using standard bolts on the flanges (the bolts where 1/2 is threaded...the other 1/2 is smooth). i dont think it's allowing me to tighten it up enough. Are these the type of bolts that are normally used? I think i'm going to have to use fully threaded bolts in order to get it tight enough.
Thanks.
