Bolt Kit - Water Pump Housing - Performance 12 Point Our Performance 12 point bolt kits are a nice looking option that features grade 8 strength, black oxide coating, and with a price that doesn't break the bank. This kit includes all the bolts you need to attach the water pump housing to the engine block. The missing bolt on the lower left side is included with our alternator bolt kits, since the type of alternator brackets being used will affect the length of this bolt. Custom matching, small diameter washers are also included with this kit.
ARP Stainless Water Pump Housing Bolt Kit Our water pump housing bolt kit includes the bolts shown below to attach a water pump housing to your engine block. Supplied in a good looking ARP polished stainless steel, these are exactly what people mean when they say "show quality."
Water Pump Housing Pipe Plug Kit We carry a convenient NPT pipe plug kit, which includes all the pipe plugs which could possibly be needed for a water pump housing.
ARP Ultra-Torque Assembly Lube - 1.69oz Tube Whenever you order bolts, don't forget a tube of ARP assembly lubricant. ARP's new "Ultra-Torque" is a special new blend of PFTE lube which ensures the correct torque will be reached on the first pull, so there is no longer any need to "cycle" the fastener (or loosen and tighten it several times), which has been the case with ARP's regular "Moly Lube" This lube is essential to get correct torque on the head, rod and main bolts, and it doesn't hurt to put it on misc other engine bolts as well. One tube is usually enough to do 4 or 5 complete engines, so it's a good investment to keep around the shop.
Bolt Kit - Water Neck or Fuel Pump Block-off Plate (2) The GOOD Option. Shown here is our package of 2 bolts and matching washers which are used to attach the thermostat housing (also called the water neck) to the water pump housing. These can also be used with either our billet aluminum or chrome steel fuel pump block-off plates.
Bolts - Water Pump to Housing (4) - w/ Billet Alum Pulleys Shown above is our NEW special bolt kit for attaching the water pump to the water pump housing when using our BILLET ALUMINUM water pump pulleys. These are a unique application, since our billet aluminum pulleys are thicker than a standard stamped steel pulley. This puts the rear of the pulley very close to the bolt heads, so the head of the bolt must be made into a certain rounded "button" shape to allow adequate clearance in this area. These bolts are just the ticket for a perfect installation. And the recessed Allen head drive looks great and makes them easy to install and remove with the engine in the car. Will also work with standard stamped steel pulleys if desired. Package includes four bolts.

Permatex Blue Loctite Use our premium Permatex BLUE Loctite on all applications which need to be held in place, but are still intended to be broken loose from time to time. We always use this on certain parts of the engine which tend to come loose occaisionally due to harmonics, even when they are torqued correctly during assembly. Big Block Mopars are famous for this on torque coverter bolts, rocker arm hardware, cam sprocket bolts, etc. We highly recommend it for those applications. One small tube is usually enough to do one complete engine. Made in the USA!
Permatex Red Loctite Use our premium Permatex RED Loctite on all applications which need to be held in place near permanently, and you don't expect to need to break loose. One small tube is usually enough to do one complete engine. Made in the USA!
