Default Anyone interested in an underhood bolt kit for LS1 TAs?

I wanted to clean up my underhood a little, so I took an assload of the bolts out and went down and bought stainless allen head bolts for everything, except for the hood latch which I bought stainless hex head bolts for.

Would you guys be interested in a kit? I had to buy in bulk, so I just want to try and recoup some of the costs. Once I get rid of all these extras, I'm not going to do anymore. Just getting rid of what I have since it cost me a lot to buy what I needed.

I know I'm not a sponsor, but I'm not running a business, just trying to get rid of what I've got. Is it ok I posted this?

I've got bolts for:
Hood strut brackets
Hood latch(core support)
Hood latch(hood)
Hood safety latch
Bumper bracket
Fender bolts
Headlight brackets
Computer bracket
Fuel rail to intake bolts
Throttle body bolts
IAC bolts
TPS bolts
Air box bolts
Core support grounds (2)
Throttle cable bracket
EGR bolt

And I bought these individually because they were special order, but I'd be more than happy to run down and order them and send them to you with a kit.
Intake bolts (10)
MAF bolts (4)

I'm going to check my reciepts tonight and see what I need to get to make my money back off of this. Any interest?

Post pictures of a finished product? Or perhaps this is for classifieds?

Also, I presume this would work for a Camaro as well...

I haven't gotten them on the car yet. I had to special order a few bolts, won't be in till tomorrow. I'll have most of them on tonight, except for the intake, fuel rail, and MAF bolts.

I'll post pics when I'm done.

Just wanted to see if there was interest before I take the time to sort them all out into little kits. Otherwise they go to the bolt box in the garage.

OK should have the rest of the bolts tonight and getting the car back together. I'll get some pics after I clean it up and get it put back together. The pollen down here is BAD and even my underhood is yellow.

From what I can come up with, it is going to be about $50 for everything here:
Hood strut brackets
Hood latch(core support)
Hood latch(hood)
Hood safety latch
Bumper bracket
Fender bolts
Headlight brackets
Computer bracket
Fuel rail to intake bolts
Throttle body bolts
IAC bolts
TPS bolts
Air box bolts
Core support grounds (2)
Throttle cable bracket
EGR bolt
Coil pack bolts
MAF ends

And if you want the intake bolts I'll be more than happy to run over and order more for you, but the intake bolts are about $4 a piece, so with those you're looking at $90.

Prices are shipped.

If anyone can see what thread and length the bolts are on their hood struts, safety latch, and hood latch on their stock hood I would really appreciate it. I have an ASCD hood and everything on there is a standard thread. I'm thinking that the factory hood uses a M6 on the struts and safety latch and an M8 on the hood latch.
