Hey guys,
I need some locking header bolts... I have mac equal length headers...
do I get these - http://store.summitracing.com/partde...1&autoview=sku


or these - http://store.summitracing.com/partde...0&autoview=sku


or should I get one of these? http://store.summitracing.com/egnsea...=KeywordSearch
If yes then which one?
I believe the lengths are different... I kind of need to order them quickly, so... whenever you all could answer! Thanks

Why would you buy locking header bolts? I use the regular bolts that came with my headers and have no problems.

as said above the bolts that come with the headers work fine, just dab a little antisieze on em and install em, now let the engine run up to operating temp and let it cool down then retighten all your bolts, you may have to do this just once or several times depending on what gaskets are used till everything stays tight.

I have had problems with header leaks... with my ceramic headers they keep backing out.... and with the engine bay being so congested on my 94 I want to lock them down once before I put the engine back in... then hopefully not have to worry about them much after that!

Calling out MJR46!!!! you've mentioned something about these before!

anyone have more input?

cortlan

no one knows which size locking header bolts I need?

Honestly I've never herd of anyone using them everyone just uses the bolts givin to them....

cortlan

oh... ya I've heard of people using them... just wondering which one's will fit mine... There are 4 different options/sizes for 5.0L Ford engines!

the first set you posted will work fine = 3/8's

You'd be fine with normal ones...
