You should snap some pictures and do a write-up on your installation; it could benefit people in the future.

Recommend using 12 point bolts or hex head bolts for the limited clearances and ease of tightening and retorquing later. ARP makes the 12 point bolts with the right length (longer) for the thick header flanges. Are you installing an aftermarket Y-pipe? Good Luck!!

You should be fine if it is set up for the stock system. Take some pictures. How much did you pay, what type, where did you get them from?
