Rudok Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 Just an FYI, After I pulled the engine on my 86 720, I decided to waist some money on expensive head bolts. Come to find out there is no kit available that specifically mentions the Z24 (or at least none that I could find). I decided to pull the trigger and just buy the kit from ARP for the KA24E and guess what... it worked perfectly. ARP 202-4307 fits the Z24 just fine! If this is already a known fact, my bad for saying it again.... Just was glad to have a win! 3 Quote Link to comment

I've personally used a Z22 bolt on an A14 and they are identical (excepting the single oil passage bolt on the A). While the Z24 uses that oil passage bolt for all 10! "11057-H5000 and 11057-H5700 are for the A12 haha. It is funny that the Z24 engine uses the bolts originally designed for the A12! Yes, those are Cro-Mo-V steel re-usable head bolts 11057-H5000 BOLT-CYLINDER HEAD LONG, TO OIL GALLERY (FROM 7/73) $4.03 * supercedes 11057-H5010 and 11057-H5700 * One needed per A-series, 10 per Z24 The A-series uses a stronger bolt for the other 9. " KA head bolts come in different varieties: * KA24E - 11057-H5010/11057-H5000 10 needed. Reusable. Same as Z24 * KA24DE, 11056-F3F01 10 needed. TTY bolts, do not reuse. Different length than the KA24E bolts." 1 Quote Link to comment
