Metric Drive Mandrel Bolt

Metric Drive Mandrel Bolt

Metric Drive Mandrel Bolt

(OP)
I am building a dry sump system for a 1.8L Mazda Miata.
I need a partially threaded flanged head bolt 14M-1.5 x 145mm long that will go through the drive mandrel and extend through the crank pulley into the crankshaft.

Does anyone know where I could get this or have one made. I have searched all the specialty bolt companies and asked our local machinists and no one knows where to get them.

Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Metric Drive Mandrel Bolt

Any machine shop would be able to spin one of those up on a lathe without any trouble.  Hardest part will be finding a shop that will do a small one off job, without charging the earth for it.

It's just as easy and effective to make your own mandrel and install it over a metric stud. That way the cost, time, metallurgy, and nice rolled threads will be a no brainer.

RE: Metric Drive Mandrel Bolt

have you tried calling arp?  If you bring those specs to them usually they have a bolt or stud/nut combo.  honestly it sounds like a 6.5L diesel main bolt.  I'll look at the shop when I get in.
