    interesting. Have never, ever had ARP header bolts (both plain and SS) loosen on a multitude of headers and motors in my Mustangs.

    I use regular Mr. Gasket header bolts (1" for the thick flange headers). Knock the shipping oil off with brake cleaner, chase the threads in the heads then brake cleaner again. Fel-Pro 1415 and done.

    +1 on the above plus tighten the fawkers up within an inch of their respective lives.
    Be cool if those new fangled bolts n washers work as advertised but wonder if the added ht under the bolt head might create problems installing where the pipe partially passes over the bolt head.
