Title: Allen Head, Cylinder Head Nuts
Post by: Kip Kern on September 17, 2008, 07:00:41 AM
Anyone out there in POG have any luck finding a jobber that carries the cylinder head allen nuts for the 76 up KTM engines?  I tried my sources but to no avail.  I know they are out there as I saw an engine with new manufactured (just can't remember who owned it!) Al is out.  Thanks in advance;)

Try McMaster Carr...I did not look but they have always amazed me with what they have ... crank shims, blue nylon lock nuts, rubber sheet for flaps etc....

Kip,
  I do not have any setting around in a head...send the size and I will look in my used bolt bin.

Ron,  32mm long, 10mm allen socket made by "Bauer" (8mm x 1.25 thread goes through the entire fastener).  I have an inquiry in Canada from a metric supplier (same place I found the 1mm x 16mm cotter keys for the clutch nuts).  May end up with 100 each but I think they would sell as these are hard/impossible to find.;)
