Header bolts
I'm installing headers and need to order a set of header bolts. Can anyone tell me what thread size is needed for a 1995 LT1? Thanks a bunch!

3/8 coarse, get them 1" long. You might want to check into the ones ARP make that are "NASCAR" style. They have a small 5/16 hex head on them and they are the best thing for getting the hard to reach ones tight.

I've changed this response three times, too early in the a.m. I guess. Yes, those are the bolts you want.

Do they make any header bolts that will work with the alternator and AC braces?

Re-use the original studs & nuts, just make a spacer out of metal tubing the proper length.
