[QUOTE="MalcolmV8, post: 15027496, member: 8854"] Grade 8 would be the 10.9 rating in metric I believe. I still have spare intercooler bolts laying around and I checked them quick and they are 8.8 which is grade 5 equivalent. Still more than double the yield strength of a standard bolt although not as good as a grade 8. My mistake, my point is don't use a standard bolt, they're so tiny they will snap when removed if not very careful. I've had to use heat in the past to remove standard bolts that were very tight. Use a hardened one. I could have sworn in the past I've had 10.9 bolts but maybe they don't make them this small. The ones I have on the car now are 8.8 and the ones I just pulled off were 8.8 as well actually (still have them laying in the garage) and never snapped one of those. [/QUOTE]
