Getting close to installing a new set of heads and don't want to reuse the stock rounded off rusty hex bolts in my heads.
What should i get, bolts or studs and steel or stainless and where?
I'm having a hell of a time finding regular hex bolts for LS engines...... they wouldn't happen to be the same as the old chevy stuff would they? i don't think they are since a 10mm hex isn't the old size........

The Percys spilt locks are great. I have used the Stage8 with the locking tabs but they rusted in short order. Some guys have not had the Stage8's rust but I am 1 mile from the ocean and the car stays outside and they rusted. The Percy's have been on for a while now in the same conditions and still look great. I like the locking design of the Percys better as well.
