Chevy V8 Chrome Steel Hex Head Timing Cover Bolt Kit

• Chrome steel hex head bolts secure your timing cover with a classic look

• 10 matching washers included for proper seating against the cover

• 1/4"-20 x 1/2" length sized for TSP steel timing covers

• Fits small block and big block Chevy V8 timing cover installations

Secure your timing cover installation with this 10-piece set of chrome steel hex head bolts and matching washers. Sized at 1/4"-20 x 1/2", this bolt set is intended for TSP steel timing covers — shorter than TSP's Allen-head kit, which uses 3/4" bolts for aluminum covers. Don't cross the two kits between cover materials.

The hex head design accepts a standard wrench or socket, and the chrome finish keeps the front of the engine looking clean and finished. Before ordering, confirm your timing cover's bolt-hole count and thread size match this set.

Applications
Fits small block and big block Chevy V8 timing cover installations, including Gen I Small Block (262–400 in³), Gen II Mark IV Big Block (396–454 in³), and Gen V/VI Big Block (454 in³). Common on Chevelle, Camaro, Nova, Corvette (small block, carbureted), El Camino, C/K trucks (Mark IV big block), and Corvette/Camaro (Gen V/VI big block).

Installation
Bolt length is intended for TSP steel timing covers specifically — shorter (1/2") than the Allen-head kit's 3/4" bolts, which are sized for TSP's aluminum covers. Confirm your timing cover's bolt-hole count, thread size, and material before ordering.

Does this kit include the timing cover itself?

No. This is a bolt and washer set for mounting the timing cover; the timing cover itself is not included.

What's the difference between this kit and TSP's Allen-head timing cover bolt set?
This kit uses 1/4"-20 x 1/2" hex head bolts sized for TSP steel timing covers. The Allen-head kit uses longer 3/4" bolts for TSP aluminum timing covers. Use the kit specified for your timing cover.

How many bolts and washers are included?
The kit includes 10 chrome steel hex head bolts and 10 matching washers.

What tool do I need to install these bolts?
A standard wrench or socket can be used. These have external hex heads rather than Allen/socket heads.

Will this fit my Small Block Chevy 350?
Yes. The 5.7L/350 is covered under Chevrolet Gen I Small Block applications.

Does this kit work on a Big Block Chevy 454?
Yes, for compatible Mark IV, Gen V, and Gen VI Big Block Chevy 454 applications using the specified timing cover hardware.

Do I need to check anything before ordering, even if my engine is listed?
Yes. Verify your timing cover's bolt-hole count, 1/4"-20 thread requirement, and cover material before ordering, particularly when using an aftermarket timing cover.
