I was tightening down the bolts on my 1993 valve cover, they felt loose, and had a lot of play left in them, then snap, I broke a bolt. I've got a new bolt now, but I need a nut. Can I just get this from the hardware store? I grabbed a couple from a 91 with the old style cover, but they don't seem to fit on more than a couple turns. Good news I suppose it that this is a great time to install my xfi cam I picked up (that's how I knew where to find the bolts so easily!)
