if you don't want to have to keep re-tightening the header bolts after they're on, i would spend the cash and get the stage 8 header bolts

the difference in expansion and contraction rates of the aluminum heads and steel headers pretty much means that they will leak. also, the stage 8 bolts have cool little tabs that will keep the bolts from backing out of the threads
