WTB : 1 Head bolt

I managed to upset on of my head bolts in getting my heads off today. So now I am in need of a single head bolt.
I don't mind used as long as it was only used once/twice in a low power application.
I am re-using my bolts as this engine won't see over 250-300 chp.
If anyone has one, let me know.
Thank you.

Derek, glad to hear you're up in Alaska now. Treating you pretty well?
If you want to make some calls I'd be happy to take one off your hands
. I wasn't sure if Doug or Matt would see this and have one sitting on their desk they could just throw in the mail.
Let me know how you want to work this and how much I owe you.
Thank you

Lee,
I will be down there on the 29th, if you need it before that let me know when and I'll make sure someone is at the house so you can pick it up. Either way you don't need to pay me for it.

Derek,
I appreciate the offer. I got to rumaging around my garage tonight and found the box of old internals from my first BC that I'd forgot about
. Low and behold I had a full set of 12 headbolts. Thanks again for the offer though.
BTW, when'd you get the 06'? Happy with it?

Good to hear. What motor are you building? I bought the '06 when I got up here. It is one of the reasons why I came up here(more $). It is the only STi I've driven and it is everything I expected and more. The diffs are awesome in the snow.

I'm putting my 22T back together in my SS. Blew a HG when it overheated from a plugged radiator/leaking heater core. For now it's a stock rebuild of the motor with a few supporting mods.
Glad you're happy with Alaska and the STi. Those front LSD's are fun
.

Are you doing the work yourself? I need to rebuild mine too. It would be nice to have someone close who knows what they're doing to show me a few things.

I am doing the work myself though I don't know if that classifies me as 'know what I'm doing'...
.
I'd be happy to offer a hand when you're back in town and start into the project though. Just let me know.

Lol, time will tell. I just need some "yeah, that looks right" as all.
