Default Anyone with stage-8 locking header bolts?

I was wondering if I need to tighten these after driving around a little bit with my new headers.

The retainer that's on there really makes it almost impossible to put a wrench around it even. Maybe you don't need to ever tighten them?

Tighten them as much as you can when you install them and then you'll never need to touch them again.
