you can buy locking header bolts

what about loc tite that would be cheaper but would it be ok to use it

I dont know about that, header bolts are known for being a pain to get out once they have been on for a while and im guessing putting loc tite on them would make it near impossible

yeah i was thinking the same thing. i would go for those locking ones they look pretty nice and you never have to worry about them ever coming out again

Ultra black sealant will fix your problem use it instead of gasket. Get the engine warm and recheck the bolts and everything should be fine. no more loose bolts.

I forget how the saying goes.....but something along the lines of: If you have headers, you have loose bolts
