996-113-113-00 EXHUST GA $6.90 (2) = 13.80
900-074-287-02 HXHD BOLT $10.71 (6) = 64.26
Grand Total = 172.22 + 13.99 tax = $186.21!!

those HXHD BOLT's are for the header-to-midpipe flange. $11 a piece?? he told me they were brass, but damn! this was all "Special Order" except for the manifold gaskets as well.

posted in case anyone else was curious or needed the part numbers.

EDIT: What's so fancy about those header bolts?? looks like they call for "Hexagon-head bolt, M 8 X 28". is this something I could pick up at the hardware store? what's the "pitch" on these? 1.25?
They are not brass but coated but, look like brass though. I could have gone with regular HD bolts as you can cut them off if they rust. The header bolts I'd go with OEm ones as they are some special ones to avoid rusting and if they break then you'll be drilling the head.

The prices above are a rip off. Why dont you order from pelican? I needed them right away otherwise I'd have got them from pelican. Prices are pretty good.
