where the heck can I get class 10.9 bolts for my elbow? Ive tried every napa and hardware store in the area. I sent an email to Charlie at evergreen to see if he can get me a couple.

Ace was the first place I looked they had 10.8 but they were really long. and I asked

how about the use of studs?

Ouch! So close. Your talking about the short ones that hold the elbow to the turbine housing? I can try to find them and send you some if youd like. Our Ace is like a super Ace.

I have them in class 12.9, but they are 30mm long, so you'd have to cut about 1/4" or so off of them..

You might try McMaster-Carr online. www.mcmaster.com

Real good place for hard-to-find hardware.
