aluminum bolts in engine

Atomic Drifter · 10-25-2013, 06:27 PM

I'm going thru the parts listing for the bolts in the engine. Several are marked as aluminum. Does anyone have any idea what type of aluminum or aluminum alloy is used and if there is an ASTM or Euro spec requirement?

Thanks

get them from dealer or one of the online dealers around here. They are cheap and come in practical sets that contain just what you need. Got mine from ECS for $10 for all pan bolts and didn't had to -think- about number and type of bolts.
