Description
Secure your exhaust system with this Pro Series header bolt kit, designed for GM Gen III and Gen IV LS engines. Factory bolts can loosen over time due to heat cycles and vibration, leading to exhaust leaks and reduced performance — this kit provides reliable clamping force and consistent fitment to help maintain a tight seal between the cylinder head and exhaust manifold or header flange.
Manufactured from 35 chromoly steel, these hex head bolts resist stretching and loosening compared to worn or reused factory hardware, and are built to handle the high-temperature environments common in LS engine applications. Whether you're installing aftermarket headers or refreshing factory-style hardware, this kit delivers dependable clamping performance.
Installation torque spec is 28 ft-lbs.
