Update: Headers are on. Unlucky, I was on the VERY last bolt tightening it, and it sheared. It is sticking out about a half inch so I took the headers off and tried to take it out with some vise grips. Nope, so i put the headers back on, tightened them all up except for the broken one and now a new one that is getting tight about halfway (same situation of the broken one, so I didnt want to push it). So it leaks there. I will take it tomorrow to get that bolt out and get the other one replaced. No biggie, hopefully only a $20 fix. I can definately tell it wants to sound mean, but the leak over tones it, so I cant hear it perfectly.

Dude Bogg it looks like you did the work in a parking garage!?

Good work man. Hopefully you get that thing with broken bolts squared away.

Judging from the pics it looks like the header are quality,is that far to assume?

Thanks for the pics.
