I don't know how thick the Pacesetter mid length flanges are, but the longtube flanges are very thick. I'm using the 3/4" bolts but I would recommend the 1" bolts for that extra holding power.

Wouldnt the splitting locking bolts be easyer to use? I am not sure if that is the correct name, but you tighten up the bolt, then you tighten the screw inthe middle of the bolt so the bolt splits outwards and keeps a tighter fit.96 Camaro Z28, T-tops, 6 Speed, Slp CIA, Flowmaster cat-back, 3:42 gearsComment

The Breslins seem like a better solution and seem esier to install.Originally posted by 96Camaro1995 Z28 Convertible, 350ci LT1 73K miles M6.

Not if the tube is too close to the header bolt to get the allen wrench up into it. Each style of locking header bolt has it's good sides and bad sides. The Breslin's would probably be easier to remove if you ever need to take the header back off. The clips on the Stage8 bolts snap on pretty good so I imagine they would be fun to take back off. I could them go flying all over the engine compartment as you try to remove them.69 Z28 with JL8 factory 4 wheel disc brakes, crossram, transistor ignition, radio delete, heater delete - being restored
