Question's on headers on an 80 350
I have a bad header gasket and need to replace them.
is there an easy way to remove the bolts without snaping them off in the head? All tips will be a great help.!!! Also what are the best gaskets to use.
Thanks Joe.

Well, if their sealed hard to the head, you can try some penetrating oil but I doubt much will seep in. Also, it's helped me in the past to ever so slightly tighten the bolts just a hair before going the other way to back them out.
Heat might also come in handy if you have one that doesn't want to let go.
