Yes tony you are right the standard good quality ones from Germany are £14 odd whereas further up the page is the £125 odd ARP bolts, these are used on tuned diesel motors with increased turbo pressures, it helps keep the head on and stops head chatter associated with higher working pressures.

So to the original poster please see a little further down Simons page for the standard JX bolts at £14 or thereabouts
