Re: bbk header
If your not worried about emissions, then weld it shut and remove the smog pump crap. I did on a 95 and had no drivability probs or idle probs. Another route would be to put some thread locker on it, but good luck removing it when you need to next time.

Re: bbk header
i think the red is the high temp stuff, if it comes loose again, try find it.
