the problem is that most of them are pretty long. the 2 at the bottom of the water pump are SHORT!!! they only thread into timing cover. A certain someone I know threaded a bolt that was too long and cracked his Cam timing gear, and found out after he cranked the motor....  I only see hime when I look in the mirror... wierd. 

anyway, I know that the heads are all 9/16"

I will also say, take a close look, there are a few bolt holes you cant get to when the water pump is on. 

Good Luck!

thanks. I got most of it together now. But I need to wait for the paint to dry no so I can work on it more. OHHHH question do you know if there is a bracket that is supposed to go on the right side of the water pump? Thanks for all the help.

Thanks

if you have power steering there are brackets that go on the drivers side of the engine & timing cover for that as well , sorry no pix though
