Hey community, Looking for new or like new exaust manifold studs for a 64 Buick Rivera with a 425 engine. I can't seem to find local places that sell them. Any help appreciated!

Looks like Fastenal got them for me at about $4 a bolt and since they are local I don't have to pay shipping cost. ?Fastenal Bolts

Okay after much back and forth, I found one bolt that I could use as a sample. The bolts for the power steering gearbox to the body are two 7/16-14- X 3- 3/4" and one 7/16-14 X 3" bolt. I went to my local Orchard Supply Store and they do not carry these bolts, their length jumps from 3 1/2 to 4". The place that has been very helpful is https://alloyboltz.com/ they have gone back and forth looking for this bolt, only thing gonna pay $8 in shipping for one bolt, but hey they carry it. Gonna try one more local place to see if they carry it, if not bite the bullet and order from alloyboltz. I got lucky and ended up finding the 3 original washers for my car.

I believe I found the dimensions, but now to find who has them

I'm looking for the steering gearbox bolts, there are three that i misplaced awhile back

Hello, I had a question, I been looking for some gearbox bolts for my 64 Buick Riviera (425 Nailhead), but the only place I found was Orginal Parts Group, but they are on backorder. Is there another place folks have seen to get some? Are there other years or Models that would fit my Rivi? Any help welcome, thank you.

Hey folks, I wanted to know if anyone can help me with what locating what bolt size do i need for my fan clutch on a 425 engine, off a 64 Rivi? I been looking all over my garage and seem to have lost them and couldn't find anything online to point me in the right direction to replace them. Any help appreciated. thank you, Gustavo

Thank you for the quick response guys. Well then that helps me out a lot and keeps $500 in my pocket. I see in your pic, which is a beauty! you have a double 4 barrel manifold. Do they make a 4 barrel aftermarket manifold for the nailhead? I've only seen yours online.

Has anyone used any of these headers for their 425 nailhead? Was their any clearance issues in your 1964 Buick Riviera? I wanted to know before I make an investment and what I would need to modify if any. http://www.sandersonheaders.com/Sanderson-BNH2-Shorty-Header-Set-for-Buick-Nailhead-V8-in-64-Up-Riviera.html http://www.taperformance.com/PDF/TAPerformance_Catalog.pdf

Hey I new to the Buick Forum. I have a 1964 Buick Rivera with a 425 nailhead and want to upgrade my alternator, im almost done with my rebuild! My questions is what brand and amp settings do you recommend for an alternator? I plan on putting in a nice sound system with subs later. Would 120-140 amps be enough or go higher? Also any places you might recommend to order some upgraded battery cables thicker gauge? thank you, Gustavo 1964 Buick Riviera 425 Nailhead
