Windage tray

[born2drivea55]

When taking my engine apart the other day I found that the windage tray is missing from the intake. The windage tray itself isn't that expensive but the new bolts are $28.00 a piece. Is there any alternatives to the $28.00 bolts on show-cars. com? This engine tear down keeps getting better n better! A cracked head, missing windage tray, whats next?

Thanks,
Dustin

Dustin,
You must mean the windage tray in the pan, not the intake.
I don't know of any susbstitute for the expensive main cap bolts with studs that hold the windage tray on, but I'm sure others will speak up.

Maybe I'm missing a pan too???

I believe that the Intake manifold windage tray from Show Cars comes with the rivets. Also, the rivets can be purchased separately for $5.00 a set.

The pan is what I'm missing. I looked up the wrong part on showcars.com. What a dummy. Thanks for your help!

I'm referring to the oil pan, under which, the windage tray is located. If you mean the splash shield under the intake manifold, it doesn't use bolts, just rivets as Barry said.
