does it matter? the bolts that connected my down pipe to the cat were rusted on really really bad. that was the biggest pita when i put on my header. the best suggestion i can say is stop posting here and get to work.

I would say they mounts require more patience. If you can get an alignment tool that would help, itâ€™s nothing more than a tapered rod that you shove through two holes to get them to align. We use them when building antennas.

For the header get some good lube, and an impact wrench. Not the pneumatic one but the one you beat with a hammer.

Best of luck

i got an impact wrench, but when we did the swap on my friend's accord, i was so pissed that the bolts were so rusted, i just broke a few of them - not on purpose, they just "broke" when they finally moved.....
