major diameter, pitch and length of:

oil pump drive bolt
lifter spider bolts
intake bolts.


I realize that normally you could just go down to teh store and figure it out.. but this goddamn town doesn't have crap, and I gotta get them to bring it from the wharehouse in houston first thing tomorrow AM.. hopefully i can get the motor in tomorrow night!

thanks

 

i'll find out for ya tommorow (friday)

 

oil pump drive bolt = 7/16-14 x 2 3/8 (it didn't say grade but sure it is at least a 5)
lifter spider bolts = 5/16-18 x 5/8 (plus a washer under it) grade 5
intake bolts = 3/8-16 x 1.38 grade 5 (this is for the non-stud bolts)

 

i feel your pain. it seems that i can never find what i need. i ran all over the country once trying to find the right size stupid valve seals. if we didn't have a Lowe's here, i don't think I'd ever find the right bolts when I need them.

 

sweeet dude, thanks!
