340 Water Pump Bolt Dimension

Daveh · August 19, 2020, 04:13:51 PM

Hey Guys,

Can someone please confirm the dimensions of the water pump bolt that I circled in the pic? Want to make sure I have the correct length.

I have a 5" and 5-1/2". Both fit but would one be better than the other?

Thanks

3/8-16 x 5.00" long

I would use the shorter one IF you have a minimum of 4 full threads of engagement

It grabs just fine I will use the shorter one. Thanks Neil.
