Advice before buying Hotshot headers??

Im about to buy HS headers from a guy locally. They have been installed on his 2k3 Max.. Now what i want to know is what parts i will have to buy? gaskets? bolts? Also... i was planning to install them myself but i never worked on that part of a car before... is it just unbolt and rebolt? is there any issue (fitment?) with the Hotshot headers?

i tried to make some research but havent found nothing

thanks for help

Don’t want to scare you because I’m sure every case is different, But my car has been on the lift scene Tuesday of last week. Plain and simple the headers don’t fit. If the front lines up the back wont, and the same thing the other way around. Have been in contact with Hotshot all of last week and all of this week…. they sent replacement parts and still nothing, we came to the conclusion that we will have to take matters in our own hands to get the headers to fit. Why? The car has to be ready for HIN it has to be at the Convention Center on Friday, according to Hotshot said they can send me out a new set but I’ll have to wait 3 week or so because they don’t have any made now.
