No idea what they cost. The ones I had on this E15 had been overheated previously and were easy to break.
I've paid $16 a bolt for SR20 flywheel bolts. Never again tho, there is a bolt manufacturer near where I live, I'll be going there next time. They have EVERYTHING you could ever want. -----Original Message----- From: Mick Ralph [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, 24 April 2005 2:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Removing snapped head bolt what would it cost to replace all the headbolts??
