As far as the exhaust bolts coming lose. My heads are the Cobra Jet style with both exhaust bolt patterns but the end holes aren't used giving me a total of 14 bolts per side. I used the Stage 8 bolts with the small diameter hex heads for access and locking levers. I asked when on phone and found that the 3/8" x 3/4" bolt set part number with an (A) added got you 1" long bolt set to take full advantage of more of the threads available in my aluminum heads. I did buy a jig for drilling bolt heads for safety wire and had to leave the center two bolts on both sides levers off and just safety wire them up. A real long pain in the ass to assemble. Some bolts ended up behind pipe and had to go in in a sequence and then draw them all in each a little ata time. Good news I've never had one come lose after the whole procedure. I also used the copper exhaust gaskets. I lost way more bolts, levers, and locking rings on my floor when working on my car than I ever lost on the road. Just don't know where they fell to but remember I had 4 extra to start with because I had to order two sets of bolts. Also the small heads let me use the box end of the wrenches which were a deffinent advantage when working by feel.
