Don't know of any appropriate stainless ones for the task. California Cycle Works has the zinc coated steel type with integral flange for the application.

Thanks Bud, I did see the zinc ones that CCW do, Id really like some stainless for this build though ... The search goes on.

A good grade of titanium might work better.

Yes, maybe Ti is the way to go, if I can find any lol ... I was wondering if Bevel head nuts will fit ?, as Ive found some of those in stainless, are M750 and Bevel both M10x1.5 ? ... If so my search will be over.

McMaster Carr   stainless steel metric 10 x 1.5 flange nuts.  I don't know where you are located, McM is in the US.  McMaster.com

I got some that were made for a bevel engine. I looked on ebay for the one I got but couldn't find them.. sorry!   [beer]

but as scaudill say's McMasters is a good place to find them, I've bought from them before as well...   [thumbsup]

Many thanks guys  [beer] ... Monsta, I found some "Bevel" stainless head nuts on ebay, from this supplier in NZ, good price too. They arrived today and fit perfectly  [thumbsup]

Been reading your build thread with interest Nibor, its coming along nicely  [thumbsup]
No, I havent started the build yet , Ive been amassing parts over the last year +. Now Im just waiting on the heads from the engineer, need to powder coat the frame, then the fun part can begin ... I will start a thread when I have some build pics to show you  :)

I cant remember if the nuts were low profile or something for access, but if they're just standard flange nuts, I just found this mob too. you may like them for any other stainless bits you need, Von Eisen. they look to stock a lot!

Thanks for the link Nibor [thumbsup] ... Yes, the OEM M750 head nuts do have a lower profile than the Bevel nuts, Ive machined approx 2.5mm off these stainless Bevel nuts (which are nice quality) ... A lot of messing around but Ive now got what I wanted.
