"new" engine finally home, and on the stand. Going to put all new gaskets in so I figured that I'd replace all the bolts at the same time. Is there a list of all the bolts required for a complete bolt replacement? Seen the SS kits on ebay, but wanting to stay away from stainless. Looking for sizes, lengths and grades - if they can be sorted by assy (water pump, oil pan, timing cover, etc) that would be great. Otherwise, I'll put one together
Stainless bolts should not be used for anything with a torque spec above 10 ft/lbs. They are grade 2 at best.
