prepping for LT install
I will be installing Lt's on my car shortly and was wondering if I should get grade 8 locking bolts? My car has 144k and I'm a little concerned about the integrity of the manifold bolts. I'm already getting new GM gaskets and O2 extensions. Thanks.

From what I have read stock GM is working damn fine.

Normaly the bolts that come with lt's are garbage so either re-use your old ones or pick up some new ones.

I used Stage 8 brand locking header bolts. By the time I got done I wasn't in any mood to screw around with it again for a while.

Thanks for the input guys, I'm not sure if my Lt's come with bolts or not, I guess I'll look at the condition of the bolts when I take them out and the decide whether I should get locking ones.
