ARP Bolts ARP Ford 351C 12pt Intake Manifold Bolt Kit, 3/8-16, Chromoly, Black Oxide
$33.95

If you’re diving into a project with your Ford 351C, you’ll want to make sure you’ve got the right hardware to back it up. That’s where the ARP Ford 351C 12pt Intake Manifold Bolt Kit comes in. Trust me, I’ve been there—nothing’s worse than wrapping up a long day of wrenching only to realize you skimped on the little things like bolts.

This kit features 3/8-16 inch thread size, which is pretty standard for intake manifolds, so you know it’s going to fit right in without any hassle. Each bolt is crafted from chromoly, which is a fancy way of saying these bad boys are tough as nails. They’ve got a black oxide finish that not only looks slick but also helps resist corrosion, so you can count on them to hold up even if you take your ride off the beaten path.

One thing I really appreciate is the 12-point head style. It gives you a solid grip, which is a lifesaver when you’re trying to torque them down properly. And yeah, they come with washers included, so you won't have to hunt around for those in the chaos of your toolbox.

Overall, this bolt kit is a solid investment for anyone looking to ensure their intake manifold is securely fastened. It’s the kind of quality you want when you’re putting your heart and soul into your ride. Don’t cut corners—grab this kit and get back to what you love: making your engine roar.

The Story Behind ARP Bolts

ARP (Automotive Racing Products) was founded by Gary Holzapfel in 1968 when he noticed his drag-racing friends succumbing to bolt-induced engine failure as a result of poor-quality fasteners. He drew upon his expertise in the aerospace industry to develop a solution, which turned into a successful business nonetheless. 

Since its inception, ARP has been engineering and perfecting a wide range of bolts, studs, nuts, and other fasteners for engines, cylinder heads, headers, wheels, and transmissions. Today, ARP remains the undisputed world leader in automotive fasteners. Racing aficionados everywhere know and recognize the ARP brand and can vouch for its quality.

What Makes ARP Bolts So Special?

Located in Ventura, California, all ARP processes from raw wire to finished fasteners are conducted in-house, right here in the USA. The company continually improves its processes with strict quality control guidelines and is dedicated to producing products that are second to none. Simply put, ARP Bolts are better than the competition because of their quality materials and advanced processes. 

ARP prides itself on using only top-quality materials that are above the usual “aerospace-grade” quality that other manufacturers settle for. For example, while 8740 Chromoly steel has four different grades, ARP only uses the top two, SDF and CHQ. These grades cost twice as much as the lower commercial and aircraft grades, but deliver “zero defect” quality that you can trust each and every time.

ARP Bolts are built to withstand serious racing, possess greater tensile strengths, and can survive higher stress levels than most aircraft fasteners. ARP is dedicated to creating fasteners that boast ultimate strength and durability to ensure they last race after race. Its product lineup ranges from quality high-performance OEM parts to exotic specialty hardware for IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, Formula 1, and even marine applications.
