I am looking into getting the jba midlength headers over the winter but my question is, they reccomend checking the bolts periodically throughout the life. That really is'nt an option for me , i want to put them in and forget about it. Anybody had any experience with them coming loose or has anybody used the stage 8 locking bolts. I was going to reuse the stock studs but jba says the flange is too thick so they wont fit over the studs. And also if i can't use the stock gaskets what kid do you guys reccomend that wont blow out and will last a long time! I am thinking long term here because i will probably never get ri of this car.?
