Re: Project: Over My Head

So, I needed to test drive a customer's car & try to provoke a symptom we thought was coming on under heat soak. Naturally, I took the car up the road to the nuts & bolts specialist in town.
Didn't get the no-start symptom I wanted, but I did get (4) M10*1.5*110 & (2) M10*1.5*90 bolts so now I have an accessory bracket mounted to my Vortec and an alternator mounted on top of that, like so:[

Power steering pump bolts, which I'll get tomorrow, are (2) M10*1.5*35 & (1) M10*1.5*30.
I forgot to measure the accessory belt tensioner bolts, but I think they are M10*1.5*25 or 30.
Of course, if you just buy a complete motor you won't need to know any of this. In retrospect, that's clearly what I should have done.
