Correct fit and ready to install. So far no problems

Fast delivery and price. Would buy again if needed. These bolts worked great on my 350 SBC engine. There are no problems yet. Ready to install with thread sealant applied to the threads.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Expensive

Just one headset not both

Great product, fast delivery, just one thing worth mentioning. I'm a little confused, but the word SET just means a side or a head. You need two sets for both heads. I discovered this today while installing the driver's side head on my trusty engine.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Not bad

Great product, the best in head bolt kits

Perfect match for my Chevy SBC block 14010207 and heads 462624. I've read in other comments that some people have broken the bottom bolts. I haven't had this problem. Do not use power tools and 3 step torque: 25lb45lb65lb Note: It comes with sealant. And you need one set per head. PuraVida

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • ---

Will I use them again? Probably just because of the price.

Nice screws but sealant too harsh. Several bolts have reached 30 pounds of torque and the heads have not yet made contact. As I expected. The holes have been cleaned and plugged, so no problem. Use a wire brush to remove the "sealant" and use your own for a good torque. Some had an SAE designation and some had metrics, but all had SAE threads.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
  • Appearance

As expected for engine parts

These are head bolts. Order two if you're making both sides. For the price it's worth it instead of reusing old screws. Many reviews say the screws come pre-applied with thread sealant, but the description doesn't say that. Nothing against all the people saying it's there (and there is something in the threads) but a statement in the description would go a long way to reassuring.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Slightly cracked

Equal or Better OEM

Certified Service Technician puts you in a dilemma when it comes to replacement parts. 9 times out of 10 I would choose a Fel Pro product over any other aftermarket brand, especially when it comes to saving customers money on part-time jobs. I don't know why some people have problems with these screws. I've used 4 of these kits and haven't had a single problem. On my last head swap I used a set of genuine GM bolts that a co-worker gave me and to be honest they worked and felt the same. I'm on…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Secret
