Oil pan stud kit

[jimynick]

Anybody have a set of oil pan studs and nuts for a 360 that they might sell? I'm not fussy as to brand and used would also be ok, as there isn't too much torque applied to the oil pan as I recall.

That's interesting, I don't recall ever seeing an oil pan held on with studs and nuts

On my 451 ( and the AMC 401) I just used common set screws and nylon lock nuts . Cheap and easy....

I have the ARP studs.  Makes it easy to align and install the oil pan when laying under it.

Yes Allen head,1" long. If I remember right, it's been a few years. Any industrial supply should have them. Here we have bolts plus ( that were I got them) , fastenal, brafasco... washers and nylon lock nuts too. They even have stainless too if you wish.

Hmmmm. Don't see the advantage of having oil pan studs? It's not like it's on and off again all the time?

You're absolutely right. But, I also didn't need aluminum heads or a roller cam or an airgap intake, or,or,or..... The only advantage would be in installation, but you're discounting the "bling" factor and God knows, there's enough of that to go round, eh?

Just makes it easier in assembly. Gasket doesn't slide around, and in the case of side kickouts it's easier than fumbling with a bolt /washer trying to find the holes. In my case I needed new fasteners anyhow so these were cheap and available when I needed them. For me "bolts plus" is  5 minutes from my house.
