Bolts for supersprint manifold

[logic_guy]

Are there special bolts that connect to the centre section for the supersprint manifold? Are these longer then standard and if so, do you know where I can get them from.


Thanks

The bolts are M10 IIRC, not sure on the pitch or length though. Just make sure they're long enough for you to fit the springs on, pass through the exhaust flange plate, and screw into the manifold flange plate.

Dont round one of like like i did.. I had to use a mr2 turbo head bolt with loads of spacers was a right bodge but it worked and didnt rattle, replaced it now though lol

I've got a funny feeling the standard saxo bolts won't be long enough. I think I'll get hold of some lobster bolts for so pre caution

My standards won't reach with my janspeed mani, i just used long M10 bolts, as long as theyll pass through the springs, washer and connecting plate it'll be okay.

Jan speed is so copy of super sprint isn't it? Any idea what sort of length you used?

[Liam_]

Twice the length of the springs should be fine imo. :)

Not sure on that..isn't superspring a really expensive stainless steel one? i think it's pretty much the same design..

Not sure exactly how long, but these were just some long ones i had lying around..as above, twice the length of the spring would be ideal..think mine are about 10cm long?

Thanks carl.

Yes, it is a expensive one.

No worries. While you're fitting it you might wanna replace the studs in the head too, theyll probably be fairly rusty, i think europarts or all parts should do it, you might wanna change the studs and the nuts as theyll al be rusty and slightly mis-shaped if they're the originals still. I didn't do mine and managed to get away with it, but itll make everything easier IMO, i'm gonna change mine in the summer.

twice the length of the springs is the way to go :y:
