Dont know if i should get the square port or oval. And also are these gaskets anygood or should i try something else. Also i cant find 1 inch non locking bolts on summit. the longest ones i can find are .875. Should i just wait on the bolts and measure the bolt hole when i take the headers off and then run to the hardware store and pick up the right size. Im just gonna get lock washers and try them out, maybe they will work alright with one of these gaskets. thanks for the help. Just tryin to get everything lined out before i order the bbk long tubes and bbk x pipe.
 
You need square port gaskets, I've tried both copper and aluminum header gaskets and prefer the aluminum hands down. When you install the headers smear a thin layer of RTV ultra copper on both sides of the header gaskets and let it tack up a little bit before you tighten things down. As for the header bolts just retighten them a few times for the first couple hundred miles and you will be fine.
