header bolt size?
Hey guys im running bbk unequal shorties, and I have been noticing a bad exhaust leak, I had tightened the bolts (not to the h pipe flange) a while back but forgot to do it again after they had seen heat, and the bolt 2nd closest to the firewall on the passenger side is totally gone. What size bolt am I looking to replace here?

Depends on how thick your flange is. Pull out an easy bolt and measure the length, you'd probably be safe with 3/4 - 1" though. It's just coarse thread as well. I usually go longer if I'm not positive how long they need to be, as you can always cut a longer bolt, which I had to do with all my header bolts (header bolts to a flange, bolts hooker gave me were about 1/8" too long, go figure), if you get a bolt that's too short, you're goin back to the hardware store.
