SBC S/S Intake Bolt Kit 12pt.

The ARP SBC S/S Intake Bolt Kit 12pt. is a premium stainless-steel fastener solution engineered for Small Block Chevy intake manifold applications. Built to OEM specifications, this polished 12-point head bolt kit addresses a critical need in engine assembly: replacing factory hardware with corrosion-resistant, high-strength fasteners that withstand thermal cycling, fuel exposure, and long-term underhood environments. Whether you're rebuilding a street engine, restoring a classic Chevy, or performing a cold-start upgrade, ARP's precision fasteners ensure reliable gasket sealing and structural integrity.

The 12-point head design offers superior wrench grip geometry compared to hex heads, reducing fastener rounding and enabling consistent, repeatable torque application during installation. Manufactured from 300M stainless steel, this kit resists oxidation and maintains its polished finish even in harsh chemical environments—critical for engines exposed to coolant, oil, and atmospheric moisture. The full-length kit ensures you have every bolt required for proper intake manifold clamping, eliminating the need for mixed hardware sourcing and guaranteeing matched load characteristics across all fastener positions.

This intake bolt kit is ideal for enthusiasts and professional engine builders working on Small Block Chevy platforms—including classic muscle cars, street rods, and modern custom builds. ARP fasteners are recognized across the automotive performance and restoration communities for their precision manufacturing and reliability under extreme conditions. Installation is straightforward with standard tools; however, ARP recommends torquing to manufacturer specifications and applying a thin coat of ARP Ultra-Torque lubricant to ensure optimal clamp load and prevent galling. Compatible with all SBC intake manifold configurations using 12-point fasteners, this kit represents a one-time upgrade that eliminates future corrosion-related failures.
