header leak

Hey guys long story gonna try to make it short,exactly last year i got my heads done,after mechanics put them on n everything else back on,they messed up the header bolts some of them i think cross threaded them.

Well I asked a muffler shop to fix the issue with the bolts n they told me there's nothing they can do to stop the leak,other then to get a set of new heads,but just now I took q tips n clean up the threads n dirt and particles came out,n bolts go in so wow.

I'm assuming they were trying to get money from me bcuz they said there's a guy that's an lt1 mechanic that knows how to do heads good lol. Just saved myself money. Instincts work fellas
