Last I heard, they shut down. You may be hard pressed in finding a set.

They are no longer made, next best thing is stage 8's, they re a SOB to install but they work well.

Be vigilent tightening the bolts frequently for the first couple weeks. Bolts don't loosen till the gasket compresses and causes a lose of torque on the bolt at which point they can begin to loosen.

You guys looking at fancy bolts are halfassed treating the symptom rather than the problem.
Repeatedly tighten the bolts as the gaskets compress from the initial heat cycles and the bolts will stay tight after that.

Breslin is MIA... went belly up.

Stage 8's are crap, you can't even get the lockers on every bolt with most LT1 headers.

ARP 12-point 1.5". Tighten twice and you're money.
