Bolts/Studs for 2.3HO Swap
Tuesday, August 11, 2009 6:16 AM
Hey Guys, quick question...
Does anyone know a place that I can get these damn studs and bolts?
I have tried everywhere and no one has them or even knows what I'm talking about. I was hoping to get them by this weekend but didnt know it would be such a pain. I have tried places like bolts plus, brafasco, napa, ct, etc... but no one has em.
Any help would be appreciated.

Why do you need studs and bolts? The stock stuff works fine....

Unless you plan to use a phenolic spacer?

PS - there is no point in installing a 2.3 H.O manifold on a LD9 unless you have a LD9 aluminum flange welded on or you have a 2.3 - 2.4 phenolic adaptor.

I believe in the original thread by Chris Fontana, he posted up the lengths and pitch needed... look it up in the performance forum, I do remember seeing the #'s there.

If you want, contact OEM and see if he'll sell you a bolt/stud kit, since his come with longer bolts/studs.

Goto a Nut/Bolt supply store with one of the studs and just ask for longer ones

If you cant find them im prettty sure i can get them quite easily and ship them to you
