Header Installation hardware ?

[csb85]

Will be installing kooks headers in a couple weeks and was wondering if i should use the hardware that came with the headers or the factory hardware ? Will be using the factory gasket because the kooks gasket looks crappy.

Get new OEM gaskets and just re-use factory hardware.

Also, before you even install them, go to an exhaust shop and fix the headers if they are long tubes...

Do it while they're off the car and you will save yourself expenses and headaches down the road.

Kooks calls them long tubes but they are really mid length headers. I haven't seen anyone with kooks have the o2 sensor problems like a true long tube does.
