I have headers on my car Now intstead of the exhaust manifolds. I am using stage 8 bolts to bolt the headers to the aluminum heads. I have no way to put the two bars that go from one of the old manifold bolts to the assesory bracket. What have some of you done?

 

Sorry, gotta use the original manifold bolts for those spots. If not you will crack the accessory holders, they need to be braced.

I guess If I have to use them.

I am just scared of pulling the threads out of the exhaust bolts of the aluminum heads. I thought about a bar that connected the two assesory brackets to counter the force of the belt, and hold the brackets apart.
