Re: Cheap Tricks

Take teflon tape and put it on your header bolts, that go into the heads. This simple little trick was in one of those 101 things for you to do to save you pain things in Hot Rod Magazine many years ago. I have been using this for years and believe it or not, the trick works. The bolts will not back out or come loose. I wrap the bolts just like you would a pipe fitting and screw them into the head. The teflon does not burn and the bolts come out when you want them to. Many miles and litle or no problems on many header setups!
