  2. Small blocks with headers usually have the header bolts back out.  I would have to re torque mine every three or four fill ups.  Since the LT1 has aluminum heads it is even more of an issue.  I have stage 8 fasteners on my headers on the truck.  Brodix heads so copper antisieze torqued down with the e clips.  You may have to clean up the washers on them to get them to fit properly around the welds and the pipes.  Two years and they have not had an issue.
