I am missing at least one bolt, havent gotten it off yet it started leaking when running looks like 3 bolts per oil header?
Using the search here I found this : Front header has 3/8 screws (9/16" wrench or socket), rear header has 5/16 screws (1/2" wrench or socket). From knuckledragger.

Nope... Each header has 4 bolts holding it to the block... Time to clean off some of the oil and dirt.

I have one in the shop and will check tomorrow, but I know there are four on the rear, cannot remember if there are three or four in front. The screw sizes are correct.

The rear cooler mount has a couple different length bolts. The front bolts are all the same length.

just for future reference, the bolt thread pitch is 16. and inch and a half works in length.

And the 'local' business did me wrong while lowes did my right
