Where did you get your drilled bolts, safety wire and safety wire pliers, if you don't mind my asking.A bit late for that now. I used a set of copper header gaskets and safety wired the bolts. No RTV though.

Sooooo,....Let me get this straight.
This started as a thread about exhaust, but also has content revolving around a "I bought this car because..........." thread.
You've stated how it has all this junk on it including a ,,,,,,,,,,(what was it,....a "perfect body and frame"?)
Meanwhile,...I look back through it and notice NOT ONE PIC!
Not a pic of a mismatched midpipe,....Not a pic of the pieces parts that made up a D.I.Y stroker kit to get 347 C.I., Not even a pic of the "perfect body or frame.
S.T.F.U. to me the next time I post something w/o them, Worthless w/o pics boy.
I think it's only fair Noobz. You harassed Mike in his thread for pictures.
Try using a ratchet strap and some heat to pull them in. Had to do it with my BBK long tubes..

Ok... some quick shots:

This one is for you. They're ARP, 6-sided that I used a drill press to put holes in. This one ended up being too short but the ones I used are just like it (only longer).
So you really took the time to drill a grade 5/8 header bolt so you could safety wire them?
When I came to the south,...I used to use header gaskets and a slight smear of rtv to hold them in place ....sometimes.
After changing my first set out in front of some of my new Yay hoo friends down here, I get told to throw away the stupid header gasket, and just use black, red, copper high heat RTV (take your pick) w/o the gasket....Allow the RTV to skin, install the header, tighten the bolts, and then retighten them after a run in,...and they never leak, and they never come loose...
You boys from up North may got book learnin' You jus don't got no street smarts.

way to rip him about the pics madmike1157 Im glad you keep him in line.
Ha...you've obviously never run a set of MAC headers before. Try that method with them and after a week it'll sound like you forgot to put the bolts in at all.
When macs are new they usually line up fine.. Newbz I used a ratchet strap on the headers and heated them where the bend under the car no issues after. Fwiw your supposed to match BBK headers with their h-pipe the same with Mac
