did it and it was a b!tch getting the new bolts tight due to severe lack of room. If I had known , I would have easily paid $200-300 to get them installed

+1...Get the satisfaction of having done it yourself. O.K., plus a few sore muscles, but what the hell.[&:] I did mine on jack stands and used this write up from a member on another board. I did it over the course of a weekend.

When you guys put the new studs into the block, did you use locktite on them or any sort of antiseize? And as far as bolting up the headers, did you use locknuts or regular nuts and did you use antiseize on them as well? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

I used the hardware Kooks provided. I did use antiseize on the bolts.

I found this write up online and thought some of you might like to read and review it if you decide to install LT Kooks headers and cats, yourselves.
Hope it helps.
