Hardware Store Grade 8 Head Bolts

don't believe those will stay torqued in that hot/cold of the engine cycles . don't you have a self help boneyard near you , i'd got some head bolts from a motor or get some stock stuff from here in the sales ads .


Anything older than a 1985 gets crushed within a week around Houston


Buy new head bolts.
Be a good time to stud the heads.


Not worth it on this engine to stud them.
This is a $200 stop gap just so I can move the truck around.


OP, contact Whitepunkonnitro if you are OK with used ones.... he may be able to sell you some used ones that he has checked.


Yeah WPN had sourced a set of springs or something for me about 6 months ago that I never needed because those heads were trash (or so says the machinist who I eventually had to abandon)
