Header bolts?

Do most people use the supplied manifold bolts when installing longtubes or reuse the factory ones? The flanges are 3/8 on the ones going on.

The supplied ones should be fine or get grade 8 locking bolts if you want to get better ones.

If they aren't broken, a lot of people reuse the stock ones along with the stock manifold gasket.
