I was wondering what all vehicles came with a Vortec engine so I can try and find some intake bolts. I need at least two with studs for my accessories but if I can find all of them that would be great also. I am going to try and find a bigger sway bar there to replace my 30MM one on my car now and figured since I was there I might as well look for these bolts also. I think 96-99 Tahoes had the Vortec heads but not sure about what other vehicles had them. Can anyone give me a list of which vehicles to even look for because this yard is huge but can get a print out of a specific area these vehicles would be in if I knew what to search for

 

exactly what bolts do you need. i swapped a couple vortecs and saved a lot of bolts from the old engines. we have a pull a part down here and the vortec stuff goes fast.

 

vortec out of pickups 98 and new i think may be 96 not 100%

 

Mine came out of a van, but all the intake bolts are just that BOLTS no studs. They might be different in a truck or car.

 

I need the intake bolts, thats the only ones I really need. I actually just need two studs that will fit the Vortec heads for accessories since the bolts from the original 305 will not fit the Vortec heads. I had an add in the buy section needing these intake bolts but only had one reply and never heard back from them. I can get a whole set of Vortec intake bolts by ARP but no studs

 

what do all of the guys use when switching to Vortec engines for their accessories in the camaro?

 

are you using the vortec fuel injection? do you need upper and lower bolts?

 

No I am using a Vortec TBI intake. I need the 5/16 bolts that bolt the intake to the heads and 2 with studs if possible. if anyone knows where to get the studs I can get the others

 

You can re-use your Camaro accessories when swapping in a Vortec 350. It's still a small block, just with better heads.

 

You are correct, I was thinking the Alternator bolted to the intake stud but looking at the picture I now see it doesn't. I guess I should have went through all my pictures before I made this post. I will just get some ARP bolts then and be done with it. Thanks for all the help
