Ram Air Boot Retainer clips and screws
Searched the catalog and don't see these. Saw online simple u-nuts and screws as a set for Corvette grill that were recommended. Something like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Corvette-NEW...item27d4a9bdf8 Where do you get these? Thanks

So one of the Forum posters (Boss) sent me a text saying my fasteners were suspect. I don't want to name who it was ( The Boss), but I would like to know if I have the incorrect fasteners, or if this unnamed troublemaker (Chris) is correct. This guy's (The Boss or Chris) 1970 had separate washers under the fasteners. My 1972 has washered hex head bolts. Which is correct or did it change over the years?
Actually I am just having a little fun, but it would be good to nail this detail down. Love ya Chris... |

BTW - I checked and have a matched set of washered hax bolts. I'll blame NjSteve if there are wrong.

Bob, 3 of mine look exactly like yours with the little double ring in the head and two of them have a little E in the head.

 Glad you didn't go the other route there Bob - I had Charleston Suicide Prevention on speed dial for ya.  The ones on my 70 had a captured washer with a smaller hex head if I remember correctly - have no reason to believe they were ever changed.

Quit showing off your nuts, and tell me where I can get good ones.

Looks like AMK has the screws as part # B-12081, pg. 78
Having seen numerous substitutions made by the factory, in other applications, I wouldn't be surprised if there are variations. |

Thanks guys . Looks like AMK has everything.. I'll have to find the correct sized u-nuts. I'll buy a few different sizes and get the screws and see how it all nuts together.

only one of my clips has that P 14 visible with the screws in place but interesting to see that stamped on another '72. As said above, 2 of my screws have the little "E" in the head and 3 have the double rings with no letter as in Mike's pic.

Not uncommon to find different foundry markings on many applications. Different suppliers parts got mixed together in bins.
