    Default Blacktop 20 valve head bolts possible replacements?

    I need to know the length and thread size of the head bolts for a blacktop 20 valve. I think they are M10 or around that? Also what special requirements do head bolts need? I'm thinking about just going to coventry fasteners or united fasteners and getting some high tensile bolts the correct sizes with torx heads.

    Failing that, can anyone point me in the right direction to get some new ones? I cant really afford ARP head studs and I would like to go pick them up asap and not have to wait heh heh, I want the BT in the 86 by this weekend!

    cheers guys

    Why dont you just buy new genuine one's for the 20V then? they are not that expensive.

    Hmm,

    In NZ here a set of Toyota 20V head studs are about $40 a set, ARP are $200ish.

    toyota 20v 4age Blacktop genuine head bolts are $25 each from toyota. arp head studs as mentioned $147 inc postage.
    This price is correct as of 2 weeks ago from CMI toyota Adelaide.
    I purchased several other parts at the same and received a fantastic price.
    I find it hard to believe that they are $40 for a full set. 4e headbolts are $4 ea. not 4a.
