Some people do and some people don't. I didn't use any--but I re-torqued them after about 500 miles.

Ill post an update soon. Im gathering all my parts and looks like ill be adding a few new tools to my collection.
On the header bolts where they bolt to the heads. Do you guys recommend using any lock-tite ? or Anti-Seize on them before i install them ?
Guess some header bolts are different, the ones that came with ARH headers are flange bolts with a 10mm hex head.Use a good quality anti-seize. If you do hunt up that style socket it is 7/16".I thought I might of posted the wrong size ,but I just checked my mix of Stage 8 and JBA bolts and they are 7/16".With it and a long extension I can get at pretty well all the bottom bolts by going between the pipes,and most of the top bolts using a slightly shorter extension
Got kooks with cats on mine. I hate the catless smell. Still have the stock muffler, resonators, & tips and it sounds decent.Well headers showed up to. i must of made an error and ordered the ones with the CATS. anyone running headers with the cats ?

Kinda wish I had went with ARP head bolts but already bought the Mopar stretch & trash bolts....lolI'm using ARP head bolts on my truck.I've ran their head studs on other engines,but on the truck,i don't really plan on jerking the heads on a weekly basis,so I just went with their head bolts,lol
