yeah i didnt spend alot of time on it yet, the bolt holes all match up great ill try to find some hardware that fits spot on.

lucky for you, the bolt hole locations got revised in the current castings. but i'd still go with the cap screws

So will these be available through Treadstone, or was this just a group buy type thing they lended a hand in after the originals were junk?

they made the first one as well. it was measuring/casting issues on their end. i'm gonna probably bank on them not carrying them though

These ones were made just for ASP. We paid for the CAD work, the tooling, and the manufacturing. If they were to come out with one later, it would be tweaked a little bit.

Ok, that's what I figured. I didn't realize they did the first ones too.

I tried mounting mine with ARP exhaust studs and 3 of the 8 fit the other 5 need to have some material shaved off the manifold...but i had a couple of other issues with the manifold so Im not touching it till I get the new one in...

ERIC sent you another email when you get a chance

i had mentioned earlier that because of the gigantic ports, studs and standard bolts won't fit. it's part of the down side of having ports this large

Yea kind of sux since I spent the money for the ARP ones... If eric comes up with a set of better ones id be interested. If not these will work but I have to pull out the old grinder to get them to work...

Plus torquing them is going to be fun.....LOL

i posted back a page or two that cap screws work the best because of being smaller in diameter. i just don't see studs working

esteinmaier · Post by **esteinmaier** » Mon Apr 09, 2012 9:24 pm

Yes, socket cap screws seem to work the best. Anything with an external drive may have trouble clearing the runners, and you won't be able to get a socket around them. I recommend to use split lock washers, as the expansion rate of the aluminum, stainless, and hardened steel all are different, and the relatively soft lock washers will help keep things from getting loose.

just to make sure is the proper size an M10 x 1.50 x 20.0?
