Default Looking for chrome bolts........

OK I'm looking for chrome bolts to attach coil brackets to my valve covers and to attach coils to the brackets.

I don't want to chrome the stock stuff.

Thanks.

Ace Hardware stocks the 6mm x 100 thread flange bolts that work great. I'm doing the same thing on my SS. Much cheaper than most places.

Yep Ace just started stocking them around here. Another way is to buy stainless ones and sand them and polish them.

Hill Co probably does have the bolts but you need to figure out the size that's needed and give them a call. I had FRCs on when I took my Camaro down for the measuring and I wasn't going to go too far with the disassembly in their parking lot.
