header stripped nut, what to do?
well I stripped a header nut, it's on of the 3 between the 4-2 / 2-1 connection of the stock header. AFTER I took everything else too!
I thought I could bypassed it by removing the catalyst convertor but the header mount (near the o2 sensor) is preventing me from taking the whole thing off as one.
Anyways, need advice on what to do next, it's a 14mm but I don't think it'd matter
Also, where can I buy header gaskets?

interesting, I have a question though, what if I can ONLY lock on to the nut by 2 sides of the nut as I do not have enough room to work with. Will I still be able to turn it?
if the size of it is a 14, try hammering on a 13. try getting some liquid wrench or something like that to help as well. i have done this a couple of times for stripped nuts. the tough part is trying to get the nut out of the socket but that can usually be done by poing a screwdriver threw the other side of the socket. good luck.

it shuold still work, you slip a deep sock over those and then turn.
