    Posted: 22 Jan 2015 at 7:58am
I pulled the motor on my 45 and can't seem to find the correct bolts to bolt the front of the engine to the support. I have two 1/2" bolt left but the won't thread into the holes. I got two new 7/16" bolts and the feel like they might be too small. Does anyone remember what the correct size is?

Loosen the motor mount bolts on the side channel, so you can line the holes up, then retighten the side bolts.  They are 1/2-13 threads.  Be sure to shim the front mount per the book, or you will put undue strain on the crankshaft.
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.

Thanks guys, I thought for sure they were 1/2. I tried to slide a feeler gauge between the support and mount but even the smallest wouldn't slide between. I assumed this meant I didn't need to shim.
