In the process of removing my water pump to put in a HD Aluminum pump, i broke a few bolts, one of the shorter and one of the longer double sided bolts. I would like to replace all of them but if i can atleast get those two i'd be fine. Any body got any leads? cause i can't seem to find any, Anywhere...

When I replaced my water pump I took my original bolts to the closest Lowes and matched size and pitch. I then bought grade 8 bolts to hold everything together. I dont know if this helps mush but thats what I did.

Ford studs use 5/16” on the engine side and 3/8” studs on the accessory side.

From Helmut Roner for timing cover/water pump bolts for no p/s and no a/c:

Lowes Hardware:

One 5/16 x 5½ inch @ $.47, Item # 55819.
Six 5/16 x 2 inch @ $.16 each, Item # 63319.
Three 5/16 x 4 inch @ $.28 each, Item # 63322
One 5/16 x? inch @ $. , Item # ?????

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._________________
