But tightening down one side then doing the other can cause a uneven seal and therefore a leak. Car looks great by the way.

Thanks and yeah I did the best I could to evenly torque down the bolts evenly. The fitment is near impossible to get a wrench on two of the bolts. The same is true on the overpipe connection due to the O2 sensor. I might need to get a little thicker of a bolt, none were supplied. I was just hoping to run it by a shop with more tools and knowledge of what will work. I was in my driveway on jackstands. Perhaps on a lift it's easier to get to the bolts.
