Default Head bolts from Burtons

Hello people,

Here's the story.

I orderd a head gasket, cam belt, exhaust manifold gaskets and head bolts to replace my headgasket on my sapph from burtons.

The parts arived today, I was very impressed with the time it took to get here. Only 5 days from placing the order to my door in Australia.

Now the problem, The head bolts are branded BGA, with a part number BK6393.
There listed for an Audi A4. Look the same as cosworth bolts.
Have they sent me the wrong part or what?
I have emailed them to ask. Waiting for a reply for them.
If it makes any diference these are only going in for a few months as in going a full rebuild next year.

Any advice?

Use or not?

Cheers

Brett

Perhaps they just happen to be the same bolts. Not unknown

Just heard back from burtons.
Aparently they share the same bolts. So I will run them until next year when I go ARP stud kit.
Car only runs 12psi, should survive that!
