Default Exhaust Hardware

I'm looking for some advise on exhaust nuts and bolts. This past weekend I took the cross-over pipe, waste gate and finally, turbo and down-pipe off. The bolts that came off were in sorry shape.

I've been considering ordering stainless hardware from McMaster-Carr to replace what was on there. I've found a mix of opinions online. Some claim it works very well, while others say stainless nuts and bolts together will seize. Does anyone have experience with this and seen how it holds up?

I've also heard good things about Jet-Lube KOPR-KOTE as opposed to the silver Permatex anti-seize. Does anyone have any experience using this on exhaust bolts?

Yup, just go with the Rennbay kit. I've got one in my trunk waiting for reassembly.

+1 for the rennbay kit. Just installed the kit on a car last week. All the nuts and bolts in one kit, saves alot of time trying to resource each piece.

I'm sold.

I'm glad to see there is a complete and reasonably priced kit out there. Now all I have to get are the crush rings for the cross-over and waste gate.

Those fuel injector Caps and seals listed there are also mighty interesting.

I don't know, seems like alot of money for a couple bolts, and you don't have the fun of searching at NAPA for 3 hours! J/k Rennbay is the best and I got an order coming in from Travis as we speak.

Great guy and company.

I had no idea they stocked anything other than what's on their site. Had I known that I probably would have placed a few more orders since they're in state and I like supporting local businesses.

Exhaust hardware is on its way along with the crush rings and other gaskets. Glad I called instead of ordering online!

Thanks all.
