Hi All,
I remember a similar thread awhile back on this same subject but I can't recall the answers.
I have a nicely modified engine that has a Hyprod installed that someone gave me to go thru and it was disassembled and one rod cap bolt is missing as welll as some other things. He wants to run the rod so I need to find a bolt.
I think it is a #12-28x1 socket head cap screw with the head tapered.
I can taper the head myself but I need a new bolt, maybe two. Anyone know where I can find one or two and if a standard grade 8 alloy screw is good enough. Seems like the larger size should allow the use of a G8 bolt.
I also need to know what torque value to use in the aluminum rod.
Any help is greatly appreciated, see ya at TBO in a couple weeks.
Scott
