header bolt question

i got some headers to replace my exhaust manifolds on a 99 f150 4.6L. my question is, the headers come with bolts and i was wondering if i need to use these bolts or use the stock stud bolts that are being used with the manifolds. or does it matter.

You will need to use the header bolts. The studs will not work because the header will not fit between the frame and head. (Maybe unless you lift the engine.)
