Just wondering which header bolts to order? I have the Pacesetter LT Headers and just need some good bolts. I was looking at these from jegs. The part number is 070-612-1000 and the site is http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10002_749575_-1_11721

What do you guys think. Is that the right part number? Oh almost forgot my car is a 95 LT1 Trans Am.

Heres the link for the ones that other ppl have told me to use and i also have a '95 LT1 with Pacesetter LT's. Although the ones you listed could work also, not sure:

Stage-8 Locking header bolts:

ARP header bolt kit:

Sure someone else will chime in on this one though also as im still figuring this out also

I just reused the stock ones. Worked great for me!

I have some 3/4" Stage 8 Lockers still new in the box if you would want them. I could probably make you a good deal on them. Let me know.

Reuse your stock bolts.

I would go with 1" Stage 8 lockers personally.

Same here.. I re-tightened/checked them every once in a while. But after about 1000 miles, they've made them selves at home in there. No problems in 2 years.. w/o locktite either.

Stock bolts also depends on the header flange thickness. if it is thicker than stock, you should order the ARP's. -Good brand BTW.. ;)

So, pretty much if you have Pacesetter's than the stock bolts wont work too well since the flange is so thick...What length are the stock header bolts 3/4"?

I believe the stock length bolts are an inch in length, but they also have spacers on them that suck up about a 1/4 inch of the thread.

Yeah, that sounds about right. :thumb:
