water pump bolts

  • Sponsors (?)


I recall people talkin about a water pump bolt kit, but I cant remember where it came from. Maybe that jogs someone's memory though.

Good luck.
 
See http://totallystainless.net/totally.html for the bolts. Last time I checked, they didn't have the studs. Nice folks, very into cars of all types. They have all kinds of stainless fasteners for almost every car. The prices are very reasonable, less the $8 for the water pump kit without the studs.

The studs are a Motormite item available at your local Advance Discount auto Parts store.

revivings a VERY old Thread.....

I have a problem, my motor got torn down last year, and I guess I wasn't as organzied as I thought, and I can't find me old water pump bolts. No biggie, I bought an ARP Bolt kit and the bolts that come in the kit for the water pump don't fit..... well, two do, the others are all a tad too long. I decided to buy the water pump stud kit, but I don't remember where they went.... anyone happen to have a diagram to show where the different bolts lengths go in the water pump? PLEASE? haha. Thanks

I'm in the process of making a diagram where all the WP bolts go but at this time I haven't finished it, so for right now this is the best I can do for you .

The quickest and easiest way to get the proper timing cover bolts and water pump bolts is to buy two kits from Totally Stainless.

Timing Chain Housing Kit 302 EFI 12 pt stainless. #6-0847
Water Pump Kit 302 EFI Through '93 12 pt stainless. #6-0931

The above are just bolts, no special studs for accessories

TotallyStainless.com does not sell a water pump kit for 94/95 5.0L.

If the prices above are a bit steep you can piece them together with the information below:

Autozone carries 3 of the odd sizes, which includes 2 studs and one long bolt.

The last one I typed I don't have, yet. It should be 2-3/4 to 3 inches long. I bought a 2½ and not much of the threads go far enough into the timing cover. It's for the bolt hole that is between the two water ports on the upper left of the water pump. I'll have that info later tomorrow.

The bolts for the water pump pulley to be used without a belt-driven fan are 5/16 x 3/4 24-thread. The two rearmost cover bolts which bolt the cover to the block (not shown) are 5/16 x 3/4 inch. I am scavenging those from an ARP bolt kit that I have which can't be used with late model timing covers. Only a few from the kit could be used as the kit was designed for older model 289/302/351W timing covers.
