I use the 11 year old kid next door to help me with the headers. He can get his hands in there where mine wont fit.

Try using Remflex gaskets.............they are semi-soft and are good to 3000 degrees. Remflex.com

Incidently, how many bolts hold up one header on that car?

I cut my headers so they are separate tubes. That way you only take loose what you need. when I tighten mine I use a 1/4 drive socket set and a wrench I took to the grinder. Header gaskets are not to bad to replace.
You should do fine Brandy.
