Does anyone know if there is a vendor that sells Chrome Intake Manifold Bolts (Edelbrock) 455 ci engine? Thanks

 

Why not figure out the sizes you need and use stainless bolts and washers? For a different look I have used stainless socket head cap screws. (Allen head)

 

Yes, that is what I was going to use.. Thanks, I was just wondering if I had options.. This is my first classic..

 

X2 on stainless. Totally Stainless sells Olds-specific bolt kits and have a variety of head styles available.

 

Or you can just go to your local fastener store and get what you need. They carry a wide variety of stainless and for what you pay for a manifold kit you can probably do the whole top end of your engine.

 

Just be careful where you opt to use stainless. Stainless bolts only come in around grade 2 ... chromed grade 8 steel is still grade 8 steel. Going with a kit keeps stainless where it's safe to use.

 

Thanks guys for all the fast responses..

 

Not necessarily. The commercial aircraft you fly in are held together with a LOT of 180KSI stainless fasteners.

 

Fixed it.

 

Yeah, well before you "fix" it again, you might want to check the Totally Stainless catalog at the link I provided above (warning, it's a 40meg download). They sell high strength stainless fasteners for high stress locations like motor mounts and suspension bolts.

 

Thank You Joe

 

You can go to West Marine and get most any size stainless bolt or screw you need.
