haha.. jk. but really.. do u guys think spending 50 on the locking header bolts is worth it? plus the extra hassle of removing the studs.. when there looks to be already no room to work with

No room to work with would be exactly the reason to go with the locking header bolts. You're going to have to get in there once, to install them, no matter what type of bolt you get. The locking header bolt are a sure fired guarantee you won't need to climb back down there again, to tighten a non-locking bolt, that's worked it's way loose.

I cheaped out with my bolts and used the ones that came with my headers. So far, so good, but if they ever work themselves loose, I’ll be kicking myself in the ass. I’ll have to undo the motor mounts and lift the engine to get to them a second time.

I bought my mac lt's used for 75 bucks. The I reused my stock studs, nuts, and gaskets. 10 months later still no leaks.

I basically did the same thing, flowtech ceramic coated LT's + midpipe for $300 shipped... Told my buddy about how nice they were and he got a set for his cobra for about the same price shipped hah. No leaks for me, damn nice for the price! Gained 60hp with 1psi + longtubes.

I added mine after the tune. So I have no idea how much they helped. I'm also adding cams before I get retuned, at the end of next month.
