WHat do I need for XS headers install?

I know it has been covered, but for some reason I cant seem to find the info. I needed. So it has been told for these headers we should get the following: new bolts(grade 8+) m10x30 or 40, new header gaskets(2 of them) and I dont remember if there was 1 more or not, but it be nice if anyone gave me the spill to everything I needed because I am getting them installed early next week.

You forgot the brews
looks like you got everything your gonna need, when I did my install i grabbed the same stuff. everything went fairly smooth other then getting the fitting to line up and fitting my hands around the headers. GOOD LUCK!

You may want to get some thermo-wrap for the flex pipe if you hear any resonance. P.S. you dont have to change the gaskets if the old ones are in good shape, but it wouldnt hurt to replace them.

The stock manifold gaskets can be reused.

I'm gonna install my headers too....

I could only find the Nuts and Bolts grade 8.8....Do I also need to buy new locks and washers too? I couldnt find a good size for those so I'm gonna use the ones that came with the headers.
