Alt bolt

[robert lee]

Looking for the long alternator bolt that the IC bracket bolt's to, i snapped the end off while tightening the IC nut, maybe something will interchange? Also looking for the stud/bolt that hold's the rear of the throttle bracket down....

Rob I think you can get the bolt that holds the rear of the throttle braket to the intake at the local hardware store. Just be sure it is the correct length and do not over tighten as the intake is a softer metal. If I recall the bolt head is a 13mm.

The stud for the ic bracket/alternator I am not sure, maybe try tb.com

Remember it has to be a bolt/stud/nut kind of thing, not easy to find...

As Jarred said, best to post on turbobuick.com to find a nice used one ... that's what I did years ago to get hold of one for mine.

Here's a picture if you need one ... tape measure is metric

Robert if you still need one here's a complete bracket with all bolts/studs at a very good price (not mine) :drool:

Thank's Jan, right now that bolt is worth $25. Btw i bought a NOS belt tenisoner for $200 shipped, that way someone will come out with a repo for $100...:hump:

Bolt definitely worth $25 ... and the bracket without it is worth $50 - 75 most days of the week lol .... keep the bracket as they tend to crack and break as well.

Yep the belt tensioner is a bummer the repros when out there started @ $75 or slightly less and that's what I paid for the one I put on my engine after that they just got more and more expensive; should have bought 5 of them at that time :-(
