ARP bolt kits

Do any of the vendors or any speed store for that matter sell ARP bolts as a whole kit for the LT1? I'm talking about every bolt, in & out. Ordering bolts for a complete rebuild would seem like a pita to me.

TIA

I can't see replacing things like valve cover bolts, header bolts, etc. Just MHO. I don't think there is an LT1 specific kit in any case.

Thunder Racing carries plenty of them. There is one set on there, not sure if it's what you're looking for or not.

I don't know if they sell one complete kit, as mentioned above Thunder Racing carries a kit that supplies fasteners for the following:
Intake Manifold bolts
Valve Cover bolts
Thermostat Housing bolts
Alternator Bracket bolts
Distributor Bracket bolts
Motor Mount bolts
Oil Pan bolts
Coil Bracket bolts
Header bolts
Front Cover bolts
Water Pump bolts
Fuel Pump bolts

That doesn't include the bolts for the heads, connecting rods, main caps, ect. Once you factor those in, it will be a pretty costly upgrade.

You definitely don't need to worry about the coil bracket bolts, for instance. That's why no one buys these as a kit. Just buy them as you need them.

The short block & heads get the new bolts. Thanks for the replys.

Thats what I am doing too, everything else seems like a waste.

Same here. I got them for the headers, too.
