    Hi all

    Who sells stock water pump bolts for a 455? I need the four long bolts, as mine have pitting on the smooth part of the bolt shaft.

    I have tried all my local auto parts houses (Ontario) and Rock Auto in the U.S., with no luck. TA only seems to sell the bolts with a smaller head.

    Thanks
    Randy

    Find ToddsGS here on the board. If there's anyone who has those, it'll be him.

    Worst case u could purchase regular long bolts and add a washer + place some sealant on the bolt threads.

    I'm pretty sure I replaced all of my bolts last time I did the water pump by going to the hardware store and matching the old to new. I want to say everything was pretty standard and I think I got grade 5 or 8 bolts too right off the shelf.

    Thanks to all, for the advice. I obtained bolts from a local fastener store.

    Cheers

    FYI........we are working with AMK on getting those longer bolts made. I have all the rest in stock for the Water Pump and Timing Cover!

    We are also working with AMK to get the longer Exhaust Manifold that is currently not available. I'll keep everyone posted once these items are available.
