Header installation - Need Help!

[dcporsche99]

Hi,
I finally found the time to start my installation of my aftermarket headers. (See pics) Since my previous thread was lost during the computer blip a couple weeks ago I am starting another thread. I hope that's ok?

Anyway, so far I have been able to take out the driver's side header, but not without some bumps along the way. The first was when one of the head bolts snapped, but I bought a tool this morning to remove it (re: I have yet to try it). BTW, I just added the picture below (12/19).

The second bump was when one of the cat bolts snapped in half as well (Please see picture - sorry it's blurry. I took the pictures with my phone camera). So far, I am stumped. Are these bolts permanently on the stock cat part? It doesn't seem to want to come off. (See picture)

Please help. Thanks in advance.
