Hey, so I got all the nuts and bolts (i think) and im about ready to put my car up on the ramps and put the new header/downpipe on, but i'm a little worried that i'm going to get half way through the job and strip a bolt or not be able to get one undone since the car is 7 years old and some of the bolts are a lil rusty, any advice? I've been sprayin them down with penetrating oil for a few days, so that should help a little, any other advice? thanks!

the oil should work when you take the nuts off tap the ratchet with a hammer instead of pulling if that doesn't work use a propane torch to heat it up but be careful that oil mite be flammable.

Don't jerk on the bolts/nuts. Just apply pressure. If you strip them then you'll be having fun getting them out. Use a breaker bar if need be.
