The long story is below, but the question is this:

Anyone know where I can pick up some new water pump bolts, ones that have the studs on the end?

So... I was gonna go racing tonight, but on the way over to my brother's house where we were meeting my car was running hot, like REALLY hot, which it never does... So I pop the hood as we are all doing the last check over the cars before we leave and I am super low on coolant. Long story shorter, I blew a water pump buy a new one and putting it in and a bolt F&#^*NG snaps! So now I'm mad because I was waiting all weekend to go racing tonight and this happens...

The dealer has the proper bolts but they can be pricey... We lucked out at Pick n Pull and found a set that came out clean without rust on a stang. We ued them with no problem. Most come out like crap.

ALMOST STOCK

Do a search on Motormite Water Pump Stud Kits, part #23744.
I believe Auto Zone or Chiefs will carry it.

Did you check 50Resto? They normally have hard-to-find stuff like that...

Ah, thank you! That's so much easier, no offense to you CantStop, I appreciate the suggestion, but I usually try to avoid 50resto as much as possible since it takes em forever to get it shipped to me.

ARP has the bolt kit. just call them.

Yea, I'm looking to get this fixed ASAP though I don't want to wait for shipping.The bolt snapped off inthe block, so now I'm out a pair of wheels right now... Thanks for the idea though.
