Mods please move this if it's in the wrong section.

Just received my Pacesetter Long Tube headers for my 1999 5.4 f150 from walmart.com of all places .

Driver side flange has one incomplete bolt hole. Is this normal?
Should I run these or try to return them? If I do run them will they be safe?

All help appreciated.

 

That’s so you can start a bolt hang the gasket in place and slip the header into place without everything falling.

 

Thanks!

 

on a side note, nice to see pacesetter is still around. They make a nice product.

 

Those concerned me when I first saw them too. But you’ll be fine. Try percy’s header gaskets. They are awesome and I haven’t had any leaks yet with mine
