Bolts on Gen2 Whipple 2.3

[nitrojunk]

hey guys ive been wanting to change the hex bolts on the blower. Has anyone ever replaced these with newer ones? Some of mine have gotten discolored over time..

im fine with taking one off and ordering all new ones but was interested in the how hard to tighten them once I replace ?

Pretty sure those bolts are stainless steel, you can clean them right up with a brass or stainless steel wire wheel on a bench grinder or drill. If you're set on getting new bolts, get a metric thread gauge, take one out at a time and measure them. I'm pretty sure they're M8x1.25. Then you can buy new ones locally or order on www.fastenal.com
