Anyone know what the thread pitch is for the valve cover bolts?

That's one thing we need, is a FSM with all the fastener pitch, length, grade...etc

Maybe you tried this but at Lowes, Home Depot, Sears, Auto Zone, and Pep Boys, they have a display to determine your fastener specs.

No I havnt tried that yet. Just figured maybe someone here might know.

Ha all the Sears, Auto Zone, and Pep Boys near me dont have anything for measuring thread pitch.
