Default Anybody makes something to interlock bolts that hold turbo to manifold?

i'm having issues with bolts backking out from the manifold. so i'm trying to find a way to interlock them without drilling holes and wires. something similar to what honda uses to interlock steering wheel bolt, the one that controls tilt??

call inline pro in VA. they have a nice set of bolts made especially for a turbo manifold with interlocking washers. i believe they're made by ARP.

you can make little plates out of scrap steel. Bend a corner around the flange and bend another tab or two against the sides of the nut. That will lock it in place. Nissan puts these on at the factoy on some of their turbo cars. This is a common spot to have that issue.

they sell washers called pantleg washers as they have two tabs you can bend so they cannot spin and back out.

Mcmaster carr also sells the bolts everyone else is talking about.

they also sell bolts with holes in the heads so you can run safety wire through them.

Or you can buy longer bolts and double nut them.

Here are four options, pick one be happy.
