Hi.

I looked all over the forums to get information but didn't really find what I need. Hopefully someone with more experience can help me.

I have SW headers on my 2012 Raptor. They are leaking like a sieve at the manifold. I think a few bolts even backed right out.

So, I'm going to pull the motor mounts and jack it up to replace bolts and gaskets. This is a real pain so I want to do it right and not again lol.

I've looked at ARP and Stage 8 but am unsure of what is best.

What are good bolts to use to keep them from backing out?

Do I need to use anti-seize on bolts or is it best not to?

Can anyone confirm bolt size? 10mm x 1.5 or 1.25? 30mm long?

I'm going to put RTV on both sides of the gasket which is a step up from the original installation.

Thanks.
