[Mk2] [Turbo] Clips & Bolts sizes used on the 3s-GTE engine

Post by killerferret666 »

I'm going to be refreshing my engine. I don't suppose there is some list of the spring band clip sizes used on the car and the bolts the car uses on the engine.

Save me going out there and playing the guessing game as god knows where my verniers are!

Yeah, there is no single list containing all bolts, sizes, thread pitches etc. pertaining solely to the short block/long block/partial assembly

Maybe not quite what you wanted to hear but useless? Just means your going to have to do the work yourself instead of relying on others.

I meant the book not your reply. But I'm afraid it is useless id have to buy every bolt listed, as what is on the engine isnt known and then have loads of wasted money and left over bolts.

I wasn't relying on others I was seeing if a forum designed to assist us all, has a knowledge base of this following a search i had performed :-k
