SOLD

Genuine Mitsubishi 10.5 hotside off a IX turbo.
On 2 of the 4 thread holes, where I drew arrows, you have to use high quality bolts (grade 8?) rather than studs, because the threads are worn. A lot of people use nuts/bolts on all 4 holes anyway so that it’s easier to remove later. There are a lot of posts about it.

TonyG, I got you! Let me make one phone call to my Comptroller (wife) and I'm sure that it'll be all good. My number is 979-224-2847 if you read this before I re-post. I've been looking for one of these for a while now. GREAT!

 

By the way, why are you selling this part? Guys just don't have a 10.5 hotside laying around unless they bought a Green brand new or something along those lines.

 

If the deal falls thru, I'll take it. I need a core exchange, so there's no down time with porting and coating. Cash in hand, pm me you paypal if Pure evo dosen't take it.

 

I was going to replace the stock 9.8 on my VIII with this, but instead I went with a IX turbo, which already has the 10.5

 

I PM'd you my address. I need your Paypal information. The total is $75 total, right? My number is 979-224-2847. Let's make this happen.

 

I got the PM and things are all good on this end. I'm having problems finding a vendor that carries the bolts I need. Can you help me out? As soon as I get back from picking up my kids I'll send the funds your direction.

 

If you're having a shop do it, give them a call. Most likely they have some lying around and you don't even have to bother.


Here's a photo from a different post:

instead of having a stud threaded into the hotside, you just use a bolt.

 

I'm sending the payment in the next 30 minutes. Thanks. Don't forget about the buyer comments.

 

Is these the right parts?

The payment has been sent.

 

When you get the hotside, take it to NAPA and find a couple bolts (and matching nuts) that'll slip into those two holes with the worn threads. Just let them know that the bolts will be used in an exhaust manifold, and need to be high strength.

A second option is to have a shop cut out new threads with a tap/die.

3rd option: Like I said earlier, if you're going to get it done at a shop familar with Evos, they probably already have the bolts you need.

 

Thanks Tony. I like Option #3 as I have no doubts that Kevin (my tuner) will have no issue squaring me away. Don't forget about those buyer/seller comments.
