Got the engine back in the bay, and I'm pretty proud of how few leftover parts I have. In fact, in some cases, not enough parts. I can't seem to find any bolts for the starter in my '82 FI.
Anyone know what length they are? I've got the thread figured out based on another bolt, but I'm not sure of the length, and if all 3 bolts are the same length. The nut and bolt shop just loves all my $1 purchases.
Starter bolt length?

Re: Starter bolt length?
All 3 bolts are 40 mm long. I installed a gear reduction starter on my car and the upper bolt got caught on the starter casing so I had to grind some material from the starter casing away. Alternative would have been to shorten the upper bolt by 3 mm but than I would have had to remembered that for the next time and put the short bolt on top again.
