I bought a complete set of stainless allen-head screws for an LS1 off of ebay. It covered most of the external engine panels/covers and such. The kit didn't have the water pump or header bolts however. Most of the heavier duty bolts I've had to purchase at the Chevy dealership.

The vendor was www.AlloyBoltz.com
For the LS1 kit, look under "Engine Bolt Kits" then "Chevy Engine Kits" and then "Small Block TPI"

Very nice quality stuff, and everything comes bagged and labeled for what it fits.

Here ya go!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...474818706&rd=1

For the little things like TB, water pump, tensioner, etc, I just went down to the hardware store and bought bolts as I needed them. If I had known that these kits existed, I probably could ahve saved myself a lot of time running back and forth to the store.

Other than the header bolts, everything that you listed I bought at the hardware store. If you can't find the correct dimensions of the bolts, let me know and I'll look them up for you.
