Hi Shane:

I just did the system on my '74 Spider.  Stainless steel seems the only way 
to go.  Up front, I double-nutted the bolts, but at the rear joint and on 
all the hangers, just used lock washers.  I used brass nuts and stainless 
washers on the head studs.  I think my car had its original system, and 
that I'd never got it off without a torch.  Ever tried PB Blaster?  The 
stuff works great.

Regards,

Dean
