I'm working on my 70 HP evinrude, replacing some of the head bolts, exhaust and head gasket. I was able to get the gaskets I needed at a local dealer, but they wanted 10 bucks for the head bolts. Three questions:

-The bolts popped (three of them) because it over heated. Should I replace all of the bolts?
-What's the part number for the bolts
-What's a good source?

There is no other appreciable damage that I could find. The cylinders and pistons are fine, I've got the water pump kit to replace that, and the boat ran OK after it happened but you could tell I was getting a little water in the cylinders. The head gasket shows deterioration around a couple of the seals, and I haven't checked the head for warpage yet.

Thanks in advance for any help, I've been searching the net for part numbers and sources, but haven't had much luck yet

You can order the OEM parts here and also look them up for the list prices: http://shop2.evinrude.com/ext/index....cfdcfac9525765


There are good aftermarket parts including bolts that they sell here at iboats.
