Just checking to see if anyone knows where to get spare motor mount bolts. As you may recall, one of mine got stripped. I plan on drilling it out, and I'll need a replacement when I do. I've already checked the various GM parts websites to no avail. If nobody has any ideas, I'll call Luke @ Lindsay this week.

Thanks!

You mean, YOU stripped one

Pull one and go to the hardware store. It's gonna be a 10 dollar bolt from GM.

You going to have to remove the engine to get this out?

Correct.

Easier said than done, since this is my only car. I suppose I could drive with one bolt missing, but that means I'd have to remove the headers twice. Also, the bolts are probably Grade 10.9, which is significantly better quality than something you'll find at Home Depot.

Hopefully not. I've got a bit extractor kit, and I've got a 1/2" drive breaker bar with three extra feet of pipe.

They sell 10.9. At least around here they do. They sell about ever grade of every size metric or standard. You can get a handful of different sizes and take back what doesn't fit.

Dealer replaced my mounts under CPO when one blew and the other wasn't far behind. Fast forward... during my header install and putting in RevShift MMs, I found one of the bolts was missing.

That doesn't seem right, although I appreciate the input. According to Gabbiani's motor mount thread, the bolts are 15mm, not 10mm.

Just because head of a bolt is 15mm it doesn't mean the bolt itself is. I'm not sure what the bolt shank size is but a 15mm head doesn't mean its an M15 bolt.

Roger that. I'll buy a couple and report back.

It's the correct bolt... at least what I was handed by the Cadillac Parts Dept. Looked exactly like the others. It was not a 10mm head.

They are M10x1.5 threads. The heads take an M15 wrench/socket. If you had mentioned this last week I could have measured the length of the bolts while they were out of my car. Luke will be able to tell you the exact size.
