What valve cover bolts?

[th3ston3r]

Broke a valve cover bolt off and was wondering what bolts i should get? I would like to order them from summit. A part number would be appreciated.

you can just take one of your other ones out and go to your nearest bomgaars or anything like it, show them the bolt and they will hook you up with a new one.

The bolts are nothing special you can get them at you local hardware store if you want.
Bolts are 1/4-20 X 1"

remember dont over torque your valve cover bolts

I bought some allen headed set screws and some flanged nuts. Makes installing valve cover gaskets very easy. You can see the set screws in the pic...

You should get rid ob those neoprene gaskets and buy the rubber w/ the steel inserts from ford. They are awesome quality and never leak. I had those on my stock 5.0 for 12 years from the factory and never leaked. When I modded the engine I put new ones back on. A little pricey but who wants to take the upper back off.
