i hope i don't start a flaming battle here, but is it necessary to torque down the header bolts. i was wondering because i just bought a DC sports header and was contemplating on installing it myself or having a shop do it for me. i'm not that good with a torque wrench so i thought it might not matter if you crank 'em hard. let me know what your thoughts are. lets keep it church appropriate.

 

how can you be "not good" with a torque wrench?

 

^ - exactly. You either have one, or you go and buy one. And yea, it is a good idea to torque them cause you don't want exhaust leaks there.
