Hi,

Yeah, I talked to a Moss supplier and Mini Mania and they both sell the
ARP bolts. Those bolts are just too darned expensive for me. I'm getting
a new rocker assembly, camshaft, tappets, and oil pump for less than the
cost of those ARP bolts, doesn't seem right to me.....

Does anyone know of a reasonably priced supplier of bolts? I heard that
some Chevy bolts will work for the flywheel and head. The conrod bolts
alone from ARP are around $110! ouch!

Thanks,

Robert
(trying to do a reasonable rebuild for around $1600)
