Those are hpop fasteners. The stc kit does come with new ones. Do you remember putting the 2-8mm's in the discharge fitting (the stc fitting)???

Yeah I'm sure I put 5 bolts total for the hpop. Any idea if there is supposed to be a bracket or washers with the bolts for the FICM mount closest to the firewall. Front mount has studs, but when I took the FICM off, there was nothing holding it to the back bracket. I can reuse my old hpop bolts and maybe a couple fender washers?

All done!!

I pulled the FICM relay and cycled the key engine off several times, cranked it 3 times for 15 seconds with a beer break between each crank. Plugged the relay back in and two crank, no smoke out of the tailpipe it started up.

Thank to everyone that took time to help me with my first diesel project.

I can't wait to do head studs.
