Intake bolts THICK
 

Finally I bit the bullet and had some thick headed intake bolts made. Roy made these years ago but had been out of them for years due to the cost these days to make such items.

The heads are thicker than most originals but once we have them cadmium plated I believe they will really look nice on a engine.

Nice!!!

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Those should sell quick.

Please provide an eBay link to these bolts....

Petehoovie,
These probably won't be sold on eBay.. We stock way too many things especially NOS and used to list it all and these were too expensive to make to have eBay take their cut from it.
.. They are making me the other lengths as we speak, then they have to be de-burred and cadmium plated so it will still be a month or so before they are ready. My selfish needs are the main reason I had them made.. All my cars have thin versions and I like opening the hood too see the thick ones.

You will let us know when they are available, won't you?

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

If your business is on facebook you will move them there also. No cut.

Im old.. I prefer the old phone call orders. Plus I then get the chance to verbally interact with people.

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Haha, great. Love the phone thing too.

Any chance you'll also be making those '32 L bolts and with the correct special, smaller OD castle nuts?

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

“L” bolts I won’t make as a hex bolt can be used to substitute. The 5/8”af slotted hex nuts I’m having quoted now but the cost and lack of sales may put a damper on me deciding to have those made.

WhooHoo!!!!!
Thank You!

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Will those fit aftermarket 8BA heads?

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

8ba heads no... 8ba intake yes...

We do have the proper thick headed bolts for 8ba heads however

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

As shown in the picture, those intake bolts look to be stainless. Would it be prohibitive to produce/manufacture them in stainless?...

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

These are not stainless as I will have them cadmium plated as original. I certainly could have made them from stainless but the ending cost goes up as well... these days it’s not cheap to produce anything in the USA, and these bolts are prime example of such.

Given that they will be plated I did not see the need in going with stainless, however I did have them quoted in stainless.

PS these will “likely” retail for $38 a complete set in cadmium plated. If I went with stainless they would have likely been $50 or so...

If I went overseas they could have been produced cheap, but I’m trying to support the American industry as best as possible.

Hi Michael. Super eye candy! Good on you.

No joke, I'm down for five sets as soon as they are done. ~$40 x 5 = $200. Done.

Send them to Rising Sun and bill them to me. He doesn't have any left from the engines he's ravaged. :)

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Man that is some nice quality stuff. Glad to see you are trying to keep stuff in the USA.

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

I'd spring for the stainless if they were offered...

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Yup just saw the phone he uses................

Re: Intake bolts THICK
 

Excellent mind set! I greatly appreciate your efforts.
