ok, i googled it (google is your friend, children), and I am nor familiar with air injection...but anyone know if the 98 v6s came equipped with this smog system, or was it just the new edges?

IF yours didn't come with the bolts, then you should have called them. Hell I would have called them if the flange was bent. You're supposed to remove the studs and use the supplied bolts.

MAC's aren't perfect, mainly because of MAC, but they are the best thing out there. They've left hardware out of my stuff, but they overnight it when I call them and tell them.
i just learned something, thanks.
gonna fix that in a few days

I'm excited to see how the pacesetter LTs do, all of the PS exhaust pieces i've seen for V8 mustangs and camaros has been good. Hoping they dont skimp on the buzzin' half dozen stuff.

IMO the studs are better, the bolts sometimes back out.

Yep, I just reused the old studs as well, no problems at all here.

If you torque them down then they don't back out. I've put 30k mi on mine with no issues.

Air injection was used for Mustangs sold in Cal. Air injection is nothing more than a few nipples on each tube of the headers that feed clean air into the headers improving imissions quality. In other words, if each of your header tubes have nipples with lines feeding into them, you have air injection, if all you have is plain tubes with the EGR system connecting to your lower half of your passenger side header, you don't.
