Quick Question...

[Superdave]

Anyone know off hand what the size is for the bolts to put my 3400 on the engine stand...

Chris thought it was 12mm x 1.5 pitch, but the shops around here don't have that size, all they have is 12mm x 1.75.

i got a few of those anyways to try (free) but i just thought i'd ask anyways.



Thanks

i had some extra main cap bolts from another block, so i used those. they worked perfectly.

*update


the main cap bolts are too small, they are the same as the head bolts which are 11mm. they'll probably work but if anyone wants the propper bolt it is: M12 x 1.75 x 80mm (or longer if you want).

I did put a nut on the back side of the one lower hole that's not threadded.

I thought it was 1.75 thread pitch. But somehow I was thinking it was M14, not M12... wasn't sure anyway.

I knew we had just discussed it but didn't have time when I first saw this post to do the search...
