I have in my grasp the latest part I am now making. These are the correct bolts that hold the aircleaner support bracket up on the thermostat housing. Nicely machined and ready to install. They will be $10 a pair plus S&H of $3.00 But as always I will be selling them freight free for $10 even untill March 14 2004 I have been in contact with Darwin about the bracket itself so stay tuned we are working towards it now. Note how nicely rusted the original is.....ou:

I had received my set the other day and now finally have time to post. These are EXCELLENT!! Another quality repro from Mike. Mike, thank you for providing these parts for the Buick community!!!
Mine arrived last night, these are outstanding. Thanks Mike! Looking forward to more repro parts from you.
Mike, I put the bolts to good use, I was stoked that every peice of my new manifold setup was new or refinished, it's made everything very sweet, just the way the Buick Gods intended. Here's a pic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:beer :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Looking good 70gsrick I will have mine in afew days YA buddy Dave 72 GS 455 factory 4spd 72 GSX 455 auto (in Restoration)
Dave, your going to love them, It was so nice threading perfect clean threads into the perfect clean manifold. I haven't torque them yet but it will be nice to get a clean accurate reading. I figured I was throwing all my money at the paint and body on the car so I didn't want to pop for an aluminum manifold yet. The coating for all my pieces was only $160, including the deal on the bolts from Mike. :jd:
Mike, Being that there are similarities in machining would it be possible to repro grille mounting studs for the various years? Just one of the many many pieces and possibilities. Thanks.
