OEM Bolts & Nuts

[urhstry]

Does anyone know a place (other than GM) where we can get OEM bolts and nuts? It's too much work to blast them and parkerize them or zinc plate them. I searched the net but couldn't find anything. Thanks.

in back issues in hotrod and car craft there was a company called xrp that had oem bolts i tried the web site and its a plumming site now. you can still get bolts from the dealer but you might have to buy a box of 10 or 100 bolts then sell the rest.

AFAIK, Totally Stainless only has hardcopy catalog available. It's too many pages for me to scan in & post. Catalogs can be ordered from their website.

I ended up getting a parkerizing kit. "black oxide". I blasted all the bolts, cleaned them with solvent (DX330) and then threw them into the plating bucket. Waited til the next day when they were dry and cleared them with Acrylic clear. Bolts look great. Better than I expected. You can see them at the Nationals! lol Kit was purchased through Caswells. (ww.caswells.com). If anybody want some pics let me know. I also use a zinc plating kit from Eastwood.
