...a stainless steel engine bay bolt kit? I'm thinking about building one and selling to you guys. Would anyone buy it?

I'm counting over 100 bolts visible in the engine bay. Since I can't buy in cases of 10,000, the cost would probably be between $.50 and $1 per bolt, with a price to you guys about $120. What do you think?

there is already a thread about this, and there is already a company that makes a kit. i would would check with their prices and see if you can beat quality and price then it might be worth it

looks like im in over my head. Hillco can sell what I was thinking for $130, and polished stainless for $216. Looks like it's time for a nap

Stainless would be nice if you can get just about every bolt in it.
