I am putting the 8ba together (slowly). I am missing a lot of bolts since they didn't come with the engine when I bought it. I am not looking to put SS bolts. So, I don't want to go down to the local Home Depot and buy cheap fasteners. I have a Fastenall near by and can order from grainger, but I was wondering what is a good finish and grade for the bolts on the engine? I am looking to put a bolt on that will last and not rust straight away. I will not be painting the bolts.
This is a 49-53 8ba engine. I need bolts for: Water pumps - I believe these are 3/8"-16 x 1 and 3/8"-16 x 1-7/8" Carb to Intake - I need 6 of these, probably studs and nuts - 5/16"-18 x 1-1/4" Intake manifold - (20) 3/8"-16x1-1/4" Heads - I have the bolts, but read washers should be added even for factory bolts. Bolt for the generator strap - I need to see what this size is Nuts for the round plate on the bottom of the oil pan Plug for the oil pan - need to check size If any of the above sizes are wrong please let me know or if you have the sizes of the ones I am missing, that would be appreciated. I have bolts for: Head bolts - I plan on using the factory ones - these don't have a shoulder on them, is that ok? Flywheel to crank Pressure plate to flywheel Oil pan fuel pump |
