SLP headers, need help!

I plan on getting the 1 3/4 headers for my car with a ZZ4 conversion kit. My question is do I need the installation kit for the headers if the ZZ4 convestion kit comes with parts for the exhaust manifolds, can't I just use the parts that come with the kit to install the headers?

The SLP installation kit includes all mounting bolts, donut rings, and brackets for installation. You will need these in addition to the manifold gaskets supplied with your engine kit, unless you decide to buy everything yourself.

i would get it. i dindt get it when i bought mine, and i ended up having to order the donut gaskets for the y-pipe. they were like 20 bucks plus shipping, and if i oredered the installation kit for 40 they would have been in there plus all the bolts. i couldnt find those damn things anywhere for some reason. but, i also used a "custom" bolt or whatever...stainless allen head bolts. i got them a local fasteners store. they look great with the headers. here is a pic...



i odnt know hwat the ones look like that they supply in the kit, but i am guessing they are just plain hex head bolts. probly the small type, with a 7/16" socket head.

I got a percys dead soft aluminum gasket from jegs for $35, bolts free from work, and those 'donuts' were $1.50 a piece at the local part store.
