Found after motor back in Options

[last337]

Of course as soon as I get the motor back in I look in toolbox and see a few bolts and nuts sitting there, staring at me. I have been staring at all visible areas and I am at a loss. Thought maybe someone might have an idea based on what I have done:


Pulled motor
Removed all tin, impeller housing pieces, alternator mount
Impeller
Oil cooler (replaced seals)
Transmission separated
flywheel/clutch removed

I did all the above over a year ago when I started fixing hellhole and longs and took apart more than I needed but used chance to clean everything thoroughly

So I have what looks to be the following left:

three M8 x 40 bolts
three A8 spring washers
two M8 x 20 bolts and matching M8 nuts

I was a bit worried they were for impeller (only place I remember 3 bolts) but I remember putting those on. I dont recall putting the M8x20's back into the oil cooler brackets so that might account for those two but leaves me with a really odd number of things left. I also dont remember using anything on shroud/tin but the 4 nuts and spring washers that hold it to the front of the motor.

I am really kickin myself over this and I know I could easily take it all apart and still not find any spots for these. I have been going through exploded diagrams and just lost. Its possible these were from somewhere else in engine bay or maybe even just floating in car when I got it but it was too long ago even as organized as I tried to be with it.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated

I wish that was the case but I only bought new motor mount bolts and exhaust to muffler bolts.

I do recall some of those nuts being in engine compartment when I got and started cleaning it up. Does anyone know what thread nut is on intake manifold studs?

M8x1.25, IIRC.

Well when I got it there was a single carb and I bought dual IDF's and but I got all new hardware with that set. Maybe thats where the nuts came from. That plus the two shorter ones for oil cooler bracket. Now just the 3 with the spring washers.

Are there any M8x40s that go into the cooling shroud or engine tin? Excluding the 4 nuts behind the impeller, the only other things I can remember is pan head screws. I have been looking at diagrams and dont see anything else.
