Stock bolts should work fine, however, if you want to guarantee that they stay put, I'd recommend Stage-8 "locking" header bolts...they worked great on all of my Camaros.

Do you have any pics of those installed? I have a set that I've been hanging on to for a long time, plan to use them if I can ever get my LQ9 project off the ground
