Hi,
Does anyone know where I can find or have a bolt spec guide for the entire car such as bolt length, type, thread pitch etc, I have a lot of bolts for various parts but also missing some and want to replace everything with stainless, any info would be great.
Thanks
Phil
Stainless have different tensile strength rates over normal bolts. So I wouldn't use stainless for suspension, calipers and anything under proper strain (basically anything 10.9 stamped)
Think I started making a list of Nova bolt specs, might have lost it though...
As above . Use zinc coated 10.9 were you need to on running gear . And when using stainless make sure you use lock nuts or loc tight trust me they will rattle loose . My whole drag car is built with stainless cap heads apart from the running gear . Even after the dyno alot of them had come loose i have had to go round every bolt and loc tight them or fit nylocks
thanks for letting me know that, would have been annoyed half way through and finding out, if you could find it that would be awesome.
I break novas and keep all the bolts so any you need let me know I’ll probably be able to help for most if not all
