Here is the Summit listing for a set of 32 bolts specificly for our ZR-1s:

The small 12 point head could provide a little extra advantage in harder to get at holes.
Jagdpanzer,

I just bought a set and installed the passenger side header. I like them so far and just not that easy to get the clips onto the lock for the hard to reach areas. Very high quality and even though not that visible it looks great on the Jet Hot coated SSW headers. There was one of the bolts I could not use due to clearance issues and the design of the SSW headers so I used studs instead. I'm not sure as I have no put all the locks on, but there is already 1 that I could not as there is no clearance; their instruction show that you can trim the lock clip so I'll have to try it. I like the 12 point head (8mm) and had no problem getting them tight; as you mentioned it seemed an advantage in the tight spots. It will be nice to know that I don't have to worry about them loosening up.
