engine bolt kits

Anyone out there have a complete list of the length, thread pitch, and size of all of the exterior bolts for our BBF's? I know arp has a stainless kit, and there's the cheapy bolt kits on e-bay, I'm looking to piece all the parts together myself since I don't need all of the bolts, just most of them.

Karl, I paid $30 for a complete bolt kit from JBG. You'll spend more time and money piecing it together.

I bought the ARP ss 12 point kit for my motor not really impressed. I would say for my application 75% of the screws were usable. This kit is meant for a stock motor, once you put aftermarket heads, intake, electric water pump ect. you will find some of the lengths of the bolts in the kit won't work.
Just a thought.

That's the main reason why I was looking for the stock sizes. About the only stock bolts I can use are the valve cover and oil pan bolts. The others were for me to get a general idea for the longer or shorter bolts needed.

I always stud my oil pan and valve covers w/studs that have the allen head inserts, the Co. I work for sponsors me w/all my bolts,nuts and screws.

^^^ I bought a 100pk of 1/4" x 1" studs with a allen head on one end from Fastenal for like $8. Worked like a charm on my VCs and oilpan
