Stainless Bolts
I want to switch to stainless bolts with Hex Socket Caps but don’t want to buy the kit from eBay. Can anyone please specify what the different lengths and quantities of bolts I would need for the whole intake… including runner bolts, TB bolts….
Thanks
Thanks

Take yours out 1 at a time and measure them!
Keep in mind that buying them 1 piece at a time will result in about 2x or 3x what the ebay kits cost.
Also keep in mind that the stainless isn't as strong and you'll probably waste a couple of the hex heads when you tighten them. You'll also need to use never seez on all of them or you'll gall the threads. Stainless looks great, but it's a pain in the ***.
