Help! I need bolt sizes for eng & trans!

[sidstang 10]

Hi,

I bought a basket case 69 Mustang and am putting in the 302 engine that came with it. But, I don't have the bolts. I would like to get them from the local hardware store, but don't know the sizes and lengths. Can anyone tell me what size & length are the:

Eng - AT Trans bolts

Starter Bolts

Bolt that holds the motor mount together

Crossmember bolts

Help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Sid

I recommend you just buy a engine bolt kit and engine mount kit from AMK.

Here's a link to AMK. http://www.amkproducts.com/Ford_Master_Kits.asp

if you need them right away the following will work...maybe:

 

bell housing to eng = 7/16" x 1 5/8 with lock washer

 

motor mount to eng = 7/16" x 1 1/4" with lock washer.

 

starter to eng = 3/8" x 1 3/8" with lock washer.

 

trans mount to trans = 7/16" x 1 3/8" with lock washer.

 

 

take these pieces to the store to confirm size . . the bolt should just barely fit in the holes/

 

motor mount to frame = 3/8" x around 3 1/2" with 2 flat washers 1 lock washer and 1 nut. Use grade 8 washers.

 

cross member to frame = 3/8" x measure the width of cross member.

 

trans mount to cross member n= 7/16 nut lock washers and grade 8 flat washers and 2 standard grade 5 washers with a large outside like fender washers
