ARP Stainless Steel 1/4-20 Center Bolted Valve Cover Bolt Kit, Polished Finish - 400-7510

If you’re looking to give your engine bay a bit of a facelift, let me tell you about the ARP SS 1/4-20 Center Bolted Valve Cover Bolt Kit. This isn’t just any bolt kit; it’s a solid upgrade that really makes a difference in both function and style.

First off, the valve cover fasteners are crafted from polished stainless steel. That means not only do they look sharp, but they’re also built to withstand the elements. You won’t have to worry about rust creeping in and ruining your hard work. The 12-point head style offers a snug fit, making it easier to torque them down properly without stripping. Trust me, that’s a game changer when you're working in tight spaces.

Now, let’s talk specs for a second. These bolts come in a 1/4-20 thread size with a decent thread length of 3.250 inches. It’s a perfect fit for most setups, and if you're like me, you appreciate when things just line up without a hassle. Plus, they come with washers included, which is a nice touch. It means less time hunting for the right parts and more time getting your hands dirty.

One thing to note is that there are no hold-down tabs included, but honestly, if you’re replacing your valve cover bolts, you probably already have a system in place that works for you. This kit is designed to complement that setup perfectly.

So, whether you’re in the garage tinkering away or prepping for a show, these bolts will not only hold your valve cover securely but also add a clean, polished look to your engine. It’s the little things that make a big difference, and this bolt kit is definitely one of them.

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.
