Listers,

Can anyone tell me the bolt diameter, length, thread pitch/count for  
the two bolts associated with the "blanking plate" area on the forward  
right side of the engine.  The Healey models in question are BN7, BT7,  
BJ7, and BJ8.  This hardware may be seen on pages 10 & 11 of the Moss  
catalogue AHY-104 under page heading "External Engine 100-6, 3000".   
The bolt is item 39, two are required.  Also listed are four (4)  
copper washers, item 40.

On earlier Healey engines, i.e., BN4 & BN6, a blanking plate, gasket,  
studs, nuts, and washers served to seal an area of the block.  On the  
later cars the bolts apparently sealed the threaded holes and the  
plate was no longer necessary.  We are about to fire up a rebuilt  
engine and do not have the bolts or the technical information on the  
bolt size, length, or threads and are hoping one of the listers can  
provide the information.

Thanks.
