Default Idler and pulley bolts.

Hi,

In a previous post you guys helped me identify some parts. They were recently delivered and I was hoping of getting some bolts included with these parts but unfortunately they were not included.

Couple of questions I hope you can answer or perhaps guide me in the right direction.
* When I replace 1,5,8,9 (in the picture below), do I have to replace the bolts with new ones or can I reuse the stock ones.
* In case I need new bolts, can someone please help me get some part numbers or dimensions of these bolts.
* Last one Are the bolts used in 1,5,8,9, all the same or do they differ from each other.

Picture is for reference, I am aware the accessories layout is corvette style and not '99 camaro.

I dont think you should have to replace the bolts. I have only changed the belt tensioner and i used that bolt.

When I replaced my tensioner I think I used anti-seize.

The crank/HB bolt needs to be replaced unless its a ARP bolt, also put anti-seize under the bolt head. I'd put some blue Loctite on the alternator pulley bolt and power steering pulley bolt, an water pump pulley bolt. Give the remaining bolts (1,5,8,9) a light coat of anti-seize.

I did, but only because it came with my tensioner. I would have been comfortable reusing the stock bolts for the idler.

Thanks everybody for helping out, this forum is awesome. Thanks to you guys and some old how to's this rookie wrench wannabe was able to do some repairs. Replaced two tensioners and two idler pullies and the two belts. Finally got rid of that of squeek. Next up are the rear brake pads, it's gonna be the Yellowstuff Brake Pads. I have this brand on the front axle and they do the job very well.
