So, does anyone know exactly how many shorter bolts are in a 351w intake,, I only had one but forgot where it goes.. And I need to tap, or clean 3 of the bolt holes.. I go to tighten down my intake tonight and 3 bolts started to bite really hard only about half way down the thread, so I decided not to strip it and just go buy a tap and refresh those threads. Anyone know where a good place would be to get one, and exactly what size to get?? I live about 2 blocks from home depot,, so I will probably start there,, or Napa..

 

Cant help you with the bolt thread size off the top of my head, but if you take one of the bolts with you to the shop, its an easy enough job to match it to a tap, just test it on varioussized nuts.

 

Thats what Im going to do at lunch today,, I will pick my boy up at school and then go to the home depot..

 

Just be carful!! I was re-torquing my intake bolts in Tuscon on my way from Texas to California, cuz it was a fresh motor, and one of the crappy bolts broke on me.
