Default Bolt hardware for installation

Anyone know what size bolts to use and a good source for them:

-Manifold to block
-Manifold to turbo
-Turbo to downpipe

Just go to Home Depot or any hardware store and get some bolts and nuts there. That's what I did. I suggest you install some lock washers on the downpipe bolts.

I can't tell you exactly the thread count on what bolts you will need but I can make this suggestion - go with GRADE 8 bolts for all high heat high stress applications.

They are typically a bronze colour and have siz little slash marks going around in a circle on the head of the bolt (I think 6, I don't have one in front of my right now to check).

You will most likely need metric bolts for your rice car application.
