Hi All,
I'm in the process of re-installing my engine in my '73. Many of the nuts & bolts I removed to drop the engine have seen better days. Is there a hardware "kit" that I can buy that replaces all of the bolts, nuts, & washers I need to re-install the engine??? I especially need the bolts that attach the motor mount brkts to the engine & the bolts & nuts that attach the engine mount. Thanks, Here's a pic of my rebuilt 2165 "almost" is ready to install. Attached image(s)

Seems you've been kinda left hangin'...
No I don't know of a kit of nuts and bolts, but I bet if you were to list the ones you need in the classifieds people have them. You could also take them down to a commerical type supplier they could match them up with new ones. Home Depot and Lowes always seem to be out of the right size metric ones when I need them. Check in your yellow pages. I have also heard the a Catapiller tractor dealer has every size in metric. You could also go the mail order route. McMaster/Carr or Granger will have them for sure, Paul |

I believe that nuts, in general, are all the same grade and are available in various finishes if that matters. On the other hand, the bolts DO come in many grades according to the job they are expected to do. The grade is marked on the head, and replacements should always be the same grade. The big trick is to know where each bolt came from.

I think Jake Raby's store has a whole hardware kit you can buy.

I was thinkin' that if anyone would have a kit pulled together it would be Jake, but I did't know for sure and didn't check. Now I know. Paul (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |

That hardware kit has every nut, bolt and washer to build a T IV longblock... We count every piece.
