Stage 8 Locking Bolts or ARP Header Bolts?
#17
I have ARP 12pt bolts. Tighten them a couple days after heat cycling and they havent backed out since. Thats been almost 2 years ago. I would buy the ARP's again if i had to do it all over. Oh yea, all the bolts are cake to get to with a small wrench and a little grinding on the closed end of the wrench so it fits between the primary tubes and the bolts. 5mins of grinding the wrench if that.

stage8 + allen head =sweeeeeeet
its the best way to get all the bolts as tight as possible without slicing off pieces of your arm/hands.
i didnt use all the retainers (they are annoying to put on)
i used 2 or 3 on each side...............but mainly used the stage8s because of the allen head makes it so much easier.

You can sort of see how the ARPs are in this pic. Head smaller to get a socket on. Look at #1.

I bought the ARPs. I like them but the 4th bolt from the front on the pass side (right after the #6 primary) fell out and the 2nd from the front was very loose on the same side. I already retorqued the driver's side and there's no problems there but I found this yesterday when I went to do the pass side (should of done it earlier). I like the bolts but I didnt retighten them when I should of due to lack of time. So now I'm trying to get a bolt that came with the headers into that hole and its not working out too well from up top. Tomorrow I'm going to try and do it from the bottom.
