Re: Poly Timing Cover & Water Pump Bolts

["Steve Mick" <micher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just take a extra long bolt, insert it into the hole till it gets to the 
thread, mark the bolt flush with the top of the hole, remove the bolt and 
measure its length to the mark, and then add 1/2" to 3/4" for how much you 
want the threads to engage in the block.  3/4" longer if you use a flat 
washer and lock washer.  I also use  a drill bit or rod and check to be sure 
there is no  debris in the bottom of the threaded 
hole.........................MO

Ah ha. That webpage gives you the count then, or the count should match the 
Poly timing cover you have. I can't recall offhand, but I think the bolts 
are all the same thread size but a couple are longer. Maybe you can take a 
small ruler or tape measure or something like a long wooden matchstick and 
use it to measure the depth where the bolt screws in?
