Guys before I did my heads etc..om 2.2l impreza I had a garage look at it and give me a quote , apparently they lost some of my valve cover bolts and my timing cover bolts I was wondering if you guys knew where to get some besides a junk yard.

i'd post pictures of what you need and how many in the parts forum. those bolts, particularly the valve cover bolts, are going to be specialty items due to their shape.

 

should'nt be too hard to get some valve cover bolts from someone off here. with the step downs on the shank and grommets they go through i doubt you'll be matching one of those up anyhwere and they'll cost $8 each from subaru or something insane.

 

you can all but ignore the timing belt cover bolts. you don't need them all anyway, i typically install every other one on my own vehicles...if i install the timing covers that is. saves you work next time.

 

if you can't leave a bolt out, you can get away with using regular bolts, just take one you have to a hardware store with you and match up the threads - they are metric and will be 1.00 or 1.25 pitch threads.

 

many of us don't even install the timing covers, or all of them, not a big deal, makes for easier maintenance the next time around. one of my is right at 60,000 miles and due for a timing belt right now.

Yep I guess I'll try the junk yard & the parts section of forum thanks!

Post up a pic or email someone.

 

I have a lot of those bolts and parts here.

 

Working on stripping a 97 2.2 now that had HG issues.
