my recommendation if you plan on buying zzp header/dp

It will come with 2 bolts to go between the header and downpipe....go get your own grade A bolts. It took less than a day on my car for these bolts to snap, and I didn't over torque them, cause come on - I'm a girl I'm not that strong, lol.

Other than that, I'm in love excellent buy, just save yourself some extra hassle and get a couple of better bolts.

Very good advice!!
I was out driving for not even 10 minutes when I snapped a bolt.

Seriously, anyone who picks this up, get better bolts.
Other then that, the product is top notch! Very clean, well made product.

Yeah, if I remember correctly the GMPP header calls for you to reuse the stock bolts, correct? If that's the case, you shouldn't have any problems.

You should feel hot air stream out from somewhere around the flange if you do have a leak.
