Hi, I think delorean12uk has some used but not stretched ones
Are yours stretched?

Hi Donna - have replied to your email, but no we don't stock them. Jason may be able to help.

It is part 102178 on here: http://store.delorean.com/c-330-1-1-5-c ... train.aspx
How many bolts do you need? 16?

What about from Volvo? as they will be for a Volvo 760.

Hey,

Thanks for your replies

I followed the ebay link and bought a new set for £60ish from Germany.

Bolts aren't stretched and other owners have advised that if not stretched then re-use. Just spoke with my Dad and he says the same. D'oh. Dad knows best. So I'll go see the bolts in the garage and take a gander to make sure none are definitely stretched. May use, keep hold or sell on.

Just want everything to arrive like now so the D can be pieced together and then the other head re-furbed and take her for a spin.

Thanks again,
Donna

If in doubt use the new ones!

Good luck getting it sorted Donna! How long have you had the car for? Is it a recent import?

+1 do it once, do it right.

How do you know if they have been stretched??? I bet you couldn't tell if you put a used bolt and a new bolt side by side.
Anyhow, you can actually get away with using them twice.....................I've done it.....................No problems........................Motor runs fine..............................it's the rest of it
