proper intake bolts

[BarryK]

hi all

I'm getting my shopping list completed to start ordering parts for my winter projects.

one area I'm confused about is the proper bolts for the intake manifold. I figure if I'm taking off the manifold to clean it up I might as well put it back on with the correct bolts.
I'm looking at the Paragon catalog but they have multiple lists of the intake bolts.
on my '65 L76 motor should the bolts have a "TR" or "M" headmark? Also, some kits list it as 12 bolts while others are listed as 11 bolts and 1 stud. Which is correct?
In the Paragon catalog i believe I've narrowed the choices down to these part numbers but am not sure which is the most correct choice. (page 16 of the lastest catalog)
1698K-Q
1719K-Q
1719K

Same question on the valve cover bolts. In the Paragon catalog on page 13 I think their part #1688K-8 with the "M" headmark would be correct.

Can anyone confirm which is the proper intake bolts and also confirm if these are the proper VC bolts?

Thanks for your help

What does your JG call for? (I have the '67 JG, but don't have the '65).

John, the '65 JG calls for either "A", "TR", "UR" or "FP" headmarks.
That cleared up my confusion as I re-read the JG. I knew it said that the first time I read the JG but two different people had previously told me to order the part # of the bolts that had the "M" markings on them which is why I needed confirmation on which was the actual correct ones. I see now as I just looked at the JG again that the "M" marking on the bolts is correct but only for the 250hp and 300hp cars.
The correct ones for my L76 would than be the ones with "TR" on them which is Paragon's #1698K-Q.

thanks! next time i'll be sure to triple read the JG before posting my question. :duh
