I'm Awesome
Bought those expensive headers and found that the through holes are too big for the bolts, which means you can wiggle the header around and never get the exact mounting spot. Any one had this problem with headers?

Why is that?The oversize holes work to your advantage.
1.1mm diameter holes vs 0.9mm diameter nuts. I haven't tried to mount them yet but to my judgement it's enough for the header not to sit exactly where it's suppose to. The OEM manifold have the 2 center holes exactly the size of the bolts.How much bigger? Are you not able to hold the header centered while torquing the bolts or studs down? There are tapered cone shaped washers available. Have you contacted Gibson, what's their response?
if you talk about the alternator bracket then yes. but not the mounting bolts.Buddy, headers are a custom fit job. If you want direct fit replacements, buy stock parts.
