Haha I'm not even going to try and play that off like it was a typo

I noticed the ebay guy includes bolts, does anyone recomend using those or getting a different set?

EDIT: Yes I did mean 1/4" though, that one was a typo! lol

He includes the bolts for the plate to the manifold, yes, use those. The intake to engine bolts are the ones that you will need to pick up on.

Check various places on pricing. These may actually be the ONLY item that the dealer has for cheaper......

Hughes used to ship it with a steel gasket....... I don't know if they still do or not. I picked up the fel-pro, and used that one.

Mine (Hughes) came with a steel one. Got a felpro also. Was about 5-6 months ago. I was looking into welding it on but didnt feel like going through the hassle.

I wish I would have used the steel gasket that came with the kit. Just to see if it works fine. I actually called Hughes and asked,(before install) if the Felpro would be better. He said they have never had a problem using the steel one.
