Hi Mike,

If you put in the header bolts that came with your kit, with Loc Tite blue, you won´t need to retighten them all the time.

If you really want locking header bolts, just get regular 3/8" header bolts that fit most U.S. cars.

The threads in the heads are metric, but the 3/8" header bolts will screw in perfectly, and actually end up tightening up just as the header is tightened up just right. The Loc Tite blue will keep you grom needing to retighten the bolts with time.

Ok thanks , My kit didn't come with bolts. I thought the heads had a metric thread. My bad.
