Cosworth headbolts - are burtons ones genuine ford??
Hi everyone,
I am just looking around for headbolts and was wondering if anyone knows if burtons do genuine ford ones with the kxa1000 number or not. I've been to fords and they can get them at £5.80 each but burtons ones are £3.49 as i need the early version (small washer). I phoned burtons and the the bloke did'nt have a clue said they're probably not genuine but did'nt even try and find out. I think i would rather spend the extra just for the reassurance unless anyone on here knows?
Cheers.

Is it really worth the gamble to save £23?
Yeah, thats what i was thinking. I know they changed the design with bigger washers to provide more clamping force but what sort of power levels are the early bolts suitable for compared with the later version or is it just the same?
