Bolts for cowl hood
I heard for the glass tek 4 inch cowl hood that the stock hood bolts cant be used to put it on. So i was wondering what bolt sizes that are used for this. Any info on the bolts would be great.

Re: Bolts for cowl hood
Yeah already got the glass tek one though. Standrad bolts thats not good. You have a whole car full of metric bolts but then you have to dig for some standard tools for the hood. I honestly looked in to just getting a metric tool set awhile back but need standard tools for friends cars so i just got them all.

Dan, the Glasstek hood probably uses standard bolts too, maybe you should call them, they are in Naperville. If you try to use a metric bolt the heads will probably snap right off as you try to tighten them.

I bought the hood from silverghost and he said the bolts wouldnt work. Hopefully this week i will have the time to just take off the stock hood and see if the bolts fit and then if they dont run to NAPA for some. Gotta wait till i can get some extra man power to lift it.

So no one knows how large the bolts are for their glass tek cowl hood. I know im not the only person on the board with one.

Re: Bolts for cowl hood
I've had mine on my 2001 Z28 and on my 2002 when I traded the 01 in and they both have used the stock ones just fine for about 6 months now. I had the Chevrolet body shop put it on when I traded it in and since it was the same color car they let me keep it for free and they said that they used the same ones so... <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />
