fellas i'm in a jam.

i'm finishing up a engine swap that a novice started and i can't find a bunch of bolts. the idiot who started it pulled bolts and just threw them around the garage. please help.

i need:
3 or 4 bellhousing bolts (17 mm)
1 muffler bolt(14mm) (exhaust manifold to cat converter) + nut(12mm) and spring
1 rear mount bolt (bolts to the tranny shaped like a T) (19mm) + 1 on the same mount i think it's a 17mm not sure (located on the tranny side of the mount)
2 intake manifold bolts (both underneath connects black bracket to intake manifold)

i also need some 96 door panel screws

 

i don't know if it helps or matters but the car that i need all those bolts for is a 1994.

 

just go to your local hardware store and they will have all of them there it will save a lot of time and shipping costs

 

you sure they'll have it? thanx for the idea i'll check it out

 

they should have them. do you have atleast one of every bolt or nut you need? if you do just take one of all of each with you and find ones just like them....if they dont have any bolts then let me know i have a bunch of misc. bolts laying around. i was just tryin to save you some time and money

 

I definately appreciate it and i'll let you know what happens

 

try the dealer too. they should be able to get anything you need, though you may have to wait for it, and it will cost a bit more.

 

Also you can go to most of your older style auto parts stores in your area and the oldtimers will know the sizes sometimes. Most of the older stores have a thread checker that will make sure that the right size is given to you..

i spent about 20 minutes in the junkyard and got almost all of the bolts i need but i still need the one for the rear tranny mount. i didn't have one to check it against it's probably about 6 inches long and i think it is a 17mm. if anyone has it let me know so i can buy it.

 

i might have one ill check when i get home from work to night and then ill let you know
