I am thinking of getting the totally stainless bolt kit for my 79 T/A, would like to see some pics of them installed on a 2nd gen trans am or camaro to see if it is worth the expense.
Would like mainly under hood pics. Also thinking of getting the billet hood stops.
Post pics if you gottem.

I have used their engine kits on several cars, and individual bolts from them plenty of times. Its a very nice finishing touch, and with all their choices of head designs (stock type, button head allen, etc) you can get whatever look you are going for. Sorry though, I don't have any pics of them on 2nd gens.

They look just like the stock bolts except they have a dull silverish finish. They are not polished and looks like stock bolts. I am not sure what you want to see.

I have their button head kit on a 70 Firebird, but we changed a number of them out for Rad Rides bolts and washers not to long ago. We sell them and use them on many of our builds.

FWIW We used their kit on my car... great kit... separate bags for separate areas/functions, etc.

We did a live engine build during a car show for a young man and his father. We used the ARP stainless kit with the 12 point heads. They looked nice. Scroll to the bottom of this page of photos and you'll see the finished engine photos:

when I got them they were satin, I built a quick jig and polished them on my little wheel buffer. I took a while but they dress things up pretty well.
