Some Vibrant header & d/p questions

So I need to get gaskets for them but Im not sure what kind to get (like size, any special style).

Also, this might sound dum, what kind of bolts would be good to use (size, material).

Hmm... i'd call the Co and get the gaskets from them. Far as bolts go i'd use grade 8 bolts.

Vibrant sells all of those gaskets. My buddy over at Swerve Motorsports usually has them in stock and should be able to get them to you quickly.

I think they are all the same, I think it is just a 3 bolt 2.5" exhaust gasket... Nothing special...

Awesome, that's all I really need to know about the gaskets. One more thing, are all 3 bolt 2.5" exhaust gaskets the same in size or are they all the same?

As for the bolts, I'm assuming grade 8 is strong enough? Also what is a good length and the diameter I need (if you know off the top of your head). And I can pick these up at like home depot right?
