Can anyone tell me which bolt size, length and pitch, they might be? They look to be 3/8 bolts... Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

I picked some up at the local hardware store and got one in 4 turns with fingers. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

Previous Owner had the work done....I was given this boat after they thought it had a cracked block.

Replaced a freeze plug and rebuilt the raw water pump and she's purring like a frisky kitty!
