Got mine from a local bolts supplier, cost me about 60p for the lot. I just took in the old ones and asked them to find some the same.

They are'nt very expensive. The dealers sell in bags of 5, so you'll 2.

 

Another option is to use normal bolts, like someone did on here (MattSav maybe?).

Anyone know how many studs's there is? my dealer reckons they can be ordered individually, and its not really clear on the parts cd...

There's 8 studs on the 8v manfold. Dealers get them in packs of 5. My dealer can only get 20 in at a time and the boss wanted to charge me for all 20, but the lad who worked there just ignores him and sells me as many as I want :)

Get more nuts than you need though because they're cheap and can only be used once (made of copper so they distort when tightend).
