Hawks Motorsports is pleased to offer our clients the following 130-2101 LS1/LS6/LS2 Chromoly 12-Point Intake Manifold Bolt Kit, Black Oxide, Set of 10, ARP. This ARP intake manifold bolt kit is designed for GM LS-series engines using factory OEM-style intake manifolds. The kit features M6 x 1.0 threads, 4.480-inch underhead length, 12-point heads, black oxide chromoly construction, and included washers. The kit is sold as a set of 10 bolts.

For the gearhead putting together an LS swap, freshening up an original LS-powered car, or buttoning up a serious engine build, the little details make a difference. A clean set of ARP 12-point intake bolts looks right at home on an LS engine and gives the engine bay that finished, purpose-built look instead of leaving a pile of mismatched factory hardware holding things together. The 12-point heads also make access with the appropriate socket straightforward when you're working around the tight packaging of an LS intake.

The 130-2101 bolts are made from black-oxide finished chromoly and feature precision-rolled threads and a wide underhead flange. ARP supplies companion washers to help distribute the clamping load across the intake manifold mounting points. The bolts have a nominal 4.480-inch underhead length and are intended for factory OEM-style LS intake manifold applications.

ARP's current application information specifically identifies 130-2101 with LS1, LS4, LS6, 4.8L RL4, 5.3L LM7 and 6.0L LQ4 applications. Several current application listings also identify LS2 and additional LS-based engines using factory-style car intake manifolds. Because intake manifolds vary between passenger-car and truck configurations, verify the exact intake manifold before ordering.

VEHICLE FITMENT / FITS THE FOLLOWING MODELS

Verified Engine Applications

ARP's current application information identifies 130-2101 for:

• Chevrolet LS1
• Chevrolet LS4
• Chevrolet LS6
• GM 4.8L RL4
• GM 5.3L LM7
• GM 6.0L LQ4

Additional LS Applications

Current application references also identify this bolt kit with LS2 and other LS-based engines when used with the appropriate factory-style intake manifold. Because ARP's current product page does not specifically list LS2 in its abbreviated application description, verify the exact intake manifold and engine configuration before ordering an LS2 application.

Representative Vehicle Applications

Where the correct LS engine and factory-style intake configuration are present, current fitment references include:

Chevrolet Corvette

• 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette
• LS1/LS6 applications where applicable

Chevrolet Camaro

• 1998-2002 Chevrolet Camaro Z28
• 1998-2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS
• LS1 applications

Pontiac Firebird

• 1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird Formula
• 1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
• LS1 applications

Other GM LS Applications

Application references also include various GM vehicles using LS-series engines, including truck and SUV applications. However, the intake manifold configuration is critical because this kit is intended for the applicable factory OEM-style intake and should not automatically be assumed to fit truck intake configurations.

IMPORTANT APPLICATION NOTES AND EXCLUSIONS

• This is ARP part number 130-2101.
• The bolts use an M6 x 1.0 thread.
• Underhead length is 4.480 inches.
• The kit contains 10 12-point chromoly bolts and washers.
• Black oxide finish.
• Intended for factory OEM-style LS intake manifold applications.
• Do not assume this kit fits every LS intake manifold.
• Aftermarket intake manifolds may require a different ARP bolt kit with a different underhead length.
• ARP identifies separate kits for LS applications using 45mm and 55mm underhead-length intake manifolds.
• Verify intake manifold configuration before ordering, particularly for truck-based LS engines and aftermarket intake manifolds.

INSTALLATION NOTES

• Verify the intake manifold configuration before installation.
• Confirm that the intake manifold uses M6 x 1.0 fasteners.
• Verify required bolt length before installation.
• Inspect threaded holes and mounting surfaces for damage, debris, or contamination.
• Use the washers supplied with the kit.
• Follow the current ARP torque recommendations and applicable engine/intake manifold manufacturer's installation instructions.
• Tighten intake manifold fasteners using the proper sequence for the specific engine and intake manifold.
• Do not substitute this kit for another LS intake bolt application without confirming the required length and configuration.
• Test fit the hardware before final assembly.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What engines does ARP 130-2101 fit?

ARP's current application data identifies the kit for LS1, LS4, LS6, 4.8L RL4, 5.3L LM7 and 6.0L LQ4 applications. Other current application references also list LS2 and additional LS-based engines, but the exact intake manifold configuration should be verified.

What size are the 130-2101 bolts?

The bolts use an M6 x 1.0 thread and have a 4.480-inch underhead length.

How many bolts are included?

The kit contains 10 bolts. Companion washers are included.

What material are these intake manifold bolts made from?

They are constructed from chromoly and feature a black oxide finish.

What type of head do these bolts have?

The 130-2101 uses a 12-point head.

Will these bolts fit an LS2?

LS2 is identified by several current application references for this part number, but ARP's current abbreviated application page specifically lists LS1, LS4, LS6, 4.8L RL4, 5.3L LM7 and 6.0L LQ4. Verify the exact LS2 intake manifold before ordering.

Will 130-2101 fit an aftermarket LS intake manifold?

Do not assume it will. ARP lists separate intake manifold bolt kits for LS applications using different intake manifold configurations and underhead lengths. Verify the intake manufacturer's required fastener length before ordering.

Are washers included?

Yes. Current ARP application information and retailer specifications identify washers as included.
