Title: WTB: nice unrestored 289 water pump bolts for non-a/c
Post by: 21.04 on December 01, 2022, 11:46:24 PM

Looking for complete set of water pump bolts for 66 HP 289 Cleveland plant block dated 2/66.  Need these to be virtually rust/pit free with no wrench marks. Preferably unrestored farm fresh.

In my experiences (6R09K121xxx for one), the water pump bolts are usually destroyed by age, corrosion and rust. Your best source for replacements is AMK, their kit F-304.

These are for a t-bred car so unfortunately I will need OEM hardware.
