I usually go through Grainger for any fastners I need. They are close by and can deliver within 24hrs. You do need an account though.

Check for Fastenal, or "XXXXX Screw" (We have Tacoma Screw) in the phone book.

yea, I tried Ace here, they did not carry the metric. I think I will have better luck at Fastenal. Thanks for your help.

or you could try Mcmaster Carr. they have many metric threaded rod sizes and have many grades too.

Sounds like you've got head bolt problems, I retapped mine 1/4 20 and jb welded it into the block! Runs great!

No problems, I have 4 engines and all the studs (intake, exhaust, head) are 6mm. I know eventually I'll need to replace one and would like to have it handy in the shop. I like to keep extra supplies in the shop just in case. This way I don't have to run around town or wait a week for shipping. Just makes sense to me...You never know what may happen.

You can replace any of the studs with the appropriate length metric bolts too.

I got 6mm in odd ball lengths at Value for reasonable prices too!
