Any source for these? VanCafe has the rod set for ~$300. Was hoping to find the bolts for less.

How about valve guides?

Thanks!

I did some research a while back looking at ARP bolts. Seemed there was a rod bolt that could be used from another VW application with minimal mods in the WBX rod. Unfortunately it was a long time ago and it was not 100% a sure thing.

edit: I searched ARP and found my original inquiry. It got off the rails pretty quickly.
