Exhaust manifold bolts...
Any alternatives out there....other than used originals or hardware store bolts?
I know I bought new ones from GM about 15 years ago....but not optimistic on current availability.. |

If you don't need the various studs included on the OEM bolts then try some place like McMaster-Carr where you can find the exact sizes you need and a choice different strength grades and materials.
Or AMK might sell them very close to original style ... I think there minimum order is $50. Also our host Ames ... says it has the correct bolt set.

I have a gallon zip lock almost 1/2 full of decent originals
do you need a couple or a set ? 2o6 465 9l65 they are all loose so I would need to know lengths |
