Default Header bolts

Are the ARP stainless steel header bolts any good for 24.95? Im about to buy some because my zinc ones fell out of my headers, 2 of them at least, gotta use some lock tight this time around. Anyways, I had to ask, because I was turned off by the hex style bolts, like you have to use an allen key for them, what do you guys think? maybe the allen key will be easier than a socket wrench now that I think about it....

ARP are known for their high quality in bolts and nuts etc.. They are very strong! But as stated (29.95) a bit pricey. Worth the money and will last forever.

Yep, could do that too.. What headers do you have BBK? I know I have had to snug up my bolts about 5-6 times already.

(EDIT) DUH!! My bad, didn't read sign.
