I have a 1975 with an engine that has been through at least a couple of rebuilds and numerous repairs. As I have been working on things it always seemed that I came across a engine tin bolt or heat exchange bolt that was not original and sometimes not even metric. So I have struggled to find the right ones to replace the odd balls I found. Now some may have an extensive selection of reserve bolts that I don't happen to have.
But I was talking with Carrie of 914Central and she worked up a little package of various length bolts that were appropriate for my engine. Now I am sure that this was not a high profit transaction for 914Central but it certainly met a need that I had and it kept me from having to buy a large number of bolts that I would likely never need. If you have a similar need it is worth it to ask 914Central if they can meet your needs. May be a little thing but I know I hate needing one bolt to finish a repair right. Having this assortment on hand will make things much easier. |
