Do you just need the 16 ¼-28 x ¾ 12 pt Head bolts that attach the runners to the underside of the plenum? I'd try giving Lingenfelter a call first. I don't know if they will help source them though.

1/4"-28 is a fine thread pitch because normally 1/4 threads are a 20 pitch. This makes it a trickier find.

ARP makes a brake hat bolt kit contaning 48 1/4"-28x3/4" 12 pt bolts in a black oxide finish. The part number is 300-0803, but it's $103 which equals out to over $2 a bolt. There's got to be a better source that drops the price to about $1 a bolt. If you want to go to a cap screw (hex head bolt) this will maybe work. Barnhill does not list the a 12 pt. 1/4" NF in a 3/4" length, only in a 7/8". Maybe someone else knows the answer to your question right offhand.

I found another source using a search engine. Price is not listed but here's the link, http://www.rcdengineering.com/price_f.html

Bingo! Here's a source and there chrome-plated and only $0.89 a pop, http://www.afchromebolts.com/catalog_12point.html. Here's another, http://www.farschrome.com/capscrews/12pointcapscrew.htm

Do you have the install .doc file that Lingenfelter published to update those horrible original instructions? Did you get the throttle bracket in the deal?

BTW, what cam are you going to? I like your setup.

I think Ominous_87 knows how to modify a stock one to work. I would check Superram related threads. Do some searching. I know it has been discussed before.

The problem is that the throttle body mounting surface on the Superram is angled down farther than a stock plenum. It puts at least one of the cables in a semi-bind if you reuse the stock bracket.

Eventually when I build my 355, IROCZZ3's Superram intake will live again.
