New S/C Bolts for FI 10mm S/C Spacers - Way Better

[Paladin06]

Did full titanium bolts kits on both cars when the SC kits were first released. Including the TB and thermostat neck.

I saw those titanium bolts, their nice, just more $ though.

True that, sometimes extra is not needed vs. price.

I installed mine over the weekend while replacing bearings and changing to a 2.72 pulley. Here’s a picture of how much longer then the socket head cap screws sent. They look Great installed as well, Good stuff 👍👍

Looks good & nice job insulating the I/C & A/C lines.

Awesome. They really do look a lot better than the socket headed bolts. I’m happy you like them!

I finally received my order and I have 19 sets available as of today 3/15/22.

Bringing an old thread back to life..... I snapped one of these bolts and have no extras. I pm'd the original seller (Gteatr6) waiting for a response. In the mean time I thought if anyone had a spare or maybe a set your not going to use, I could purchase them from you. Mike

I have a few sets available. I pm’d you.

Can you expand on how you "snapped" one? It seems unlikely from tq given the low tq values?

the only thing I can think of is I must have gotten oil on the threads. And like and idiot I kept turning and snap! All of the other bolts torqued just fine. Mike

Interesting, I can see how that could happen. I have a set that I have not installed yet, as well as several sets of O.E. bolts, it might be interesting to compare torsional stiffness.

The following information is taken from the data sheet I received when the bolts were made.
Mechanical tests:
Class 8.8
Brinell hardness 268
Tensile strength (MPa) 858
Yield strength (MPa) 658
elongation % 13

Class 8.8 is the ISO number assigned. I have these on my car and haven't had any issues. I have my stock bolts too. Going to check to see if there’s a head stamp on.

Stock bolts are 8.8 as well.

 

[16GoManGoHC2]

Metric 8.8 is not that strong, considering there’s 10.9 and 12.9 beyond 8.8.

 

[fumanchu182]

But Dodge chose to use 8.8 😉

higher quality steel would make for a bad day on the heads and the supercharger when you clap down. Also got to remember these things aren’t in gorilla torque spec

 

[drag racer]

ISO 8.8 is approx. equivalent to SAE Grade 5

I replaced bolts on both cars with titanium bolts when I did the spacers years ago.
