    Default Intake Bolt Options

    Many of you are looking for intake bolt options for our weak factory bolts.

    Getting the stainless knurled socket head ones to match the kits is almost impossible, so here is what I have found and I will know how many I can get in the morning.

    Option 1. Stainless Hex Head (you will reuse your factory washers)



    They will be $42.50 shipped for either option which is cheaper then the factory bolts.

    If you have pre-paid for bolts and want one of these options, just PM me and tell me.

    These bolts MUST be changed so you dont break 1 when changing intake or removing the intake cover.

    Just post "I want" so I can see how many extras to order.

    This cheap compared to the $350 it cost me to have a broken bolt removed from the head. And yes I was using an in lb torque wrench and the bolt never made it to 89in lbs. I'll be ordering a set when I do my ported manifold/tb.

    $350??? Good lord! I was going to remove my intake cover this weekend, but I think I'll hold off for a while until I want to spend the money for new bolts.

    If you use coil covers it doesnt matter. The SS hex head will almost look stock and you will remove the washer from the OE bolts as shown in the original post.

    Just PP and I will ship when they come in.

    I seriously would. Obviously lots of people have done it with no issues, but the bolts are known to be weak. Sucks if you're the one it breaks on. $40 is cheap.

    Bolt snapped on mine two. Mine was very difficult to get out, almost had to pull the heads. Good investment if you plan to remove your intake cover.

    Almost exact same story for me. Well worth the money. I will order a set too when I do my ported manifold/tb because at that time 1) everything will be off anyway and 2) I should have access enough to grab the broken bolt with my hand or a vice grip and break it again - oops, I mean - ease her out.
