I think VB has 'em too. Half the price if you trust their quality. Check with Mr. Kirk also.

Hope this helps- Dave

VB hardware is always a subject of concern. They are the only folks I know who have sold MG head studs that stretch before torque is achieved. I imagine they've long ago been pulled but....

Yeah, I stopped buying hardware from VB when I ordered bridge bolts for my MGB's calipers, and they sent some ungraded, zinc plated bolts that I probably could have bought at the hardware store much cheaper. The original bolts had a nylock insert running down the length of the thread, and looked to be at least grade 8 (blackened not plated). I can't remember if the originals had grade markings on them.

Anyway, I called VB and voiced my concern that the bridge bolts they were selling may not be high enough grade for the application. I asked what the grade of the bolts were and all I got in reply was a snippy comment "I'm sure we wouldn't sell anything that wasn't safe" and the option to return the bolts for a refund.

That was a long time ago, and I've since stopped buying anything from them because of quality issues (ill fitting water pump was the last straw).

FWIW,
Bill P.
