Ok so as I’m putting my 87 442 back together I’m always looking for the nuts and bolts I took apart. Now I will say the majority I have nicely bagged up and labeled however as I’ve been assembling the engine and brackets I’ve found it helpful to use the bolt gauge I’ve assembled from the hardware store (I’ll insert a picture).
To my question though as I’m trying to install the shift plate bracket for the lightning rods it screws into the same holes on the transmission hump, Ive tried every size and I’ll be damned if I can figure out what size they are nothing fits standard or metric, next I’m just going to tap new ones. If you know please help a brother out. Thanks in advance
