I'm one of the lucky ones that can run allen headed set screw (studs) w/lock washers and nuts.

Usta run allen head capscrews, but went to studs and 12 point nuts last year. Waaay easier to get the headers hung.

I have had good luck with some made by "Percy's", and there may be others who make something similar. They have a 12 point head with a small allen set screw in the center. Tighten the bolts and tighten the set screws and they don't come loose.
