You can add a header manager to use the same header for all your requests.
Use the header manager in a parent of all the samples that need to be in
its scope. For those requests that need to over-write it, use the HM as
child to those samplers.

For the general question: can logic be shared between threads? It has been
discussed recently, check those discussions first, maybe you find some
useful tips there, or share with us what those threads don't cover.

Cheers,
Adrian
