Head Bolts

[Scott King]

NAPA has head bolts for less than half the price from the dealer. Are the lower priced bolts a lower grade or are the dealer bolts over priced? The guy at NAPA laughed at me when I said the bolts are too cheap ($12 per head), I'd be afraid to use them.

I have never used the NAPA.
But, GM parts are all overpriced. Get yourself a set of ARP bolts. You will be set.

People have used NAPA bolts succesfully and some swear by TTY bolts while other swear by ARP bolts ..... yet others will say to use ARP studs. Depends on your goals I guess.
