Hello All -

My ARH headers (finally) arrived and since I'm going to be taking off the intake manifold I wanted to replace the mounting studs and bolts - I'm having a really hard time finding a hardware kit for this.

Would anyone have a link where I could get this from?

Oh and I'm UK based so I can't pop down to an AutoZone :p

Was the header instock or did you have to wait and how long was the lead time

You're probably not going to like this answer but I ordered the header back at the beginning of April and received it mid this month.
...but I knew it was going to take awhile as ARH were shutting down their old shop to move State to their new shop.

I would certainly have a word with them about leadtimes now their setup in the new place.
 
Oh...! I think I see were I've misunderstood - There are only 11 bolts/studs for both the intake and exhaust!

So when they advertise "Exhaust Manifold Mounting Hardware" it is in fact for both:

If I've got this correct?



That's silly money, but a really nice product!

It was kind of a joke (although I have a set on the shelf for installing my ARH header) but it illustrated what you need easily and I had the link handy. Yeah, and regular set will do you fine 👍
 
Oh yeah, just remembered there's some kind of issue with the big spacer/washers sitting kinda wonky with some thicker flanged aftermarket headers that I think the kit I linked is supposed to fix? Just something to look for when you install. Please post up lots of pics and a review of the header post install.

Thanks for the info - I picked up the Fel-Pro Exhaust Manifold Hardware and Gasket.
Just waiting for some other parts to arrive and it to stop raining - for sure I'll get loads of photos. (y)
