Exhaust manifold bolts

[benny3008]

i have sheared off the bolts on the exhaust manifold to downpipe attachment on rover 214, where am i likely to be able to get replacement bolts other than scrapyards?

Standard thread .. metric .. but usually special bolts.
Best result? Drill/extract out if poss and fit replacement studs.
If accessible .. use a torch/blowlamp to heat the broken threaded section as much as poss before trying. Did this on a Renault downpipe a few weeks ago.
You will need a lot of luck. Don't rush the job, or you will end up screwed. Consider taking off manifold to bench vice job.

Rimmer Bros do all Rover spares.

thanx for both answers, do you have any ideas which bolts/nuts i will need from rimmer bros, i have had a quick look but cannot figure out which ones will be best for the job.

Looks like you need simple M10x25 studs.
Rimmers for parts, or any decent exhaust garage should sort that one quite easily.

would this be the same on the single pipe? this one you said to go by is for the twin pipe.
