I got my headers installed today, and they used stage 8 locking bolts.

I just got them to avoid leaking down the road.
I'd rather spend the money on bolts now, than pay someone to get under the car and fix a leak.

Look at this way, if your car develops a header leak, then you'll wish you had bought Stage 8 bolts! One header leak on a previous car was enough for me, so I went with the bolts. As with anything the best parts always cost extra!
