Correct bolt size for Rover V8

Post by RiktheLogger »

Hi All.

Can anyone give the correct bolt size for the Bellhousing to 3.9 Rover lump please?

Went with the bolts to our local fasteners place in order to get longer ones to use with a stand and he's only gone and sent me away with M10's! Close, but no cigar! Im assuming they are the UNF equivalent but dont have a guage.

I know, I know, I should have checked! :?

Thanks, Rik
