I sprayed a little HI-tack on them before reusing them to be on the safe side. If you dont have a lift get a 12 pack and a friend. You might be there a while. Air tool will be your friend! If no air tools get a red bull. You will need it. My best advice if you dont have air tools or a lift go get a set of swivel sockets. They are a god send in the hard to reach corners.
ya i know swivel set it is!!!

I installed the BBK long tube headers myself, it takes patients but i was quite amazed on how easy they were to install. putting long tube headers on a 4th gen camaro is a nightmare! lol

i used factory gaskets and bolts and no leak problems. just make sure after a week or two to go back and recheck the bolts just to make sure they are tight.

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but use a torque wrench so you don't over torque the bolts.
