Hi,

Does anyone know the dimensions of these are I want to replace them when i get round to changing the gasket. Also would there be any issues in using s/s bolts are replacements?

Cheers

I used stainless when I replaced mine with no problems so far, so far as sizes go, I could only buy 50mm M5 (I think) and I had to cut 4 of them shorter....
I will check tomorrow on sizes if nobody with the specs at their fingertips posts up...!

Wrong size, see my lower post... I have checked today...!

M6 David, cant remember the exact lengths (should be in the family album) Yes you can use stainless, i did.
I used this place for all my bolts etc.

I just checked my Namrick invoice for those bolts, they are indeed M6... I bought 2 50mm ones and 4 25mm ones... for the cover
(I also got 6 No. 25mm M6 for the throttle body, and plug cover, also well worth doing if your ordering from Namrick is 6 No. M5 x 50mm plus washers, and you can change the wastegate cap screws too for stainless... much nicer...
(This is where I was getting confused, M5 and M6... )

I remembered I had to cut them down.... the family album lists the cam cover bolts as 4 @ 20mm (I had to buy 25mm) and 2 @ 48mm (had to buy 50mm)
Remember to get washers where needed, also sold in stainless...
You have the same as me... I have no funds for super power, but it sure looks nice under there...!
