if you buy them and are doing the Cam cover bolts, I have the 6 smaller ones you need unless you too want to buy 50


QTY 48 Metric 18-8 SS Socket Head Cap Screw M8 Thread, 55mm Length, 1.25mm Pitch, Packs of 10 PN 91292A156

QTY 8 Metric 18-8 SS Socket Head Cap Screw M6 Thread, 50mm Length, 1mm Pitch, Packs of 25 PN 91292A144

QTY 12 Metric 18-8 SS Socket Head Cap Screw M8 Thread, 25mm Length, 1.25mm Pitch, Packs of 25 PN 91292A148

I might have a stock one in the pile of extras I have.

Some of the other ones look pretty rough (corroded) I may have to replace all of them.

Stainless may be the way to go.

Hans,

That's what happened to me last year. Had to drill bolt heads. Replaced with SS from McMaster.

Great info Jeff! Put 6 of those last ones aside for me. I'll pick them up from you this week. Just placed my order for the rest.:thumbsup:

Hans, make sure you chase the threads and clean them out, and also use some antiseize on the replacements bolt.

Good point Jeff thanks...

I got lucky and actually managed to get the broken bolt shank out with a visegrip. I have a ported set of injector housings and plenum ready to go in. I'll clean the old ones up before I put them up for sale with the old plenum.
