Default Water pump bolt sizes

Hi Guys

Im looking find out the correct lengths for the water pumps on my engine. \as it seems it doesnt have the correct ones or not even all of them. So if you could let me know what size goes where that would be great.

many Thanks Roland

Here's some info. Easiest thing to do is measure the depth of the hole like 51 Merc said. Don't let the bolt "bottom out" and use anti-seize compound.

Get the correct measurements from a Ford parts book. I know
some of them are odd lengths. To long and they bottom out and
the pump isn't squeezing the gasket. G.M.
